Milwaukee Audubon Society Annual Meeting
Milwaukee Audubon Society will host its 2024 annual meeting from 10 to noon with an update on MAS program focus areas and a presentation by distinguished speakers Dr. Don Mikulic, Emeritis, Illinois Geologic Survey, representing the Weis Earth Science Museum, and Randy Powers, Senior Botanist and Ecologist for Milwaukee Audubon Society and the Wisconsin Audubon Education program explaining some of the unique characteristics of the Horicon-Headwaters-Divide Unit of the Niagara Escarpment at Milwaukee Audubon Society’s Buffalo Speaks Reserve.
Afternoon Walk at Horicon Marsh Site
At noon we break for lunch. Followed by a cuesta walk on that site from 1 to 3 PM, weather and conditions permitting, reservations requested by contacting the MAS Conservation Chair j.uhrinak@gmail.com
Space for MAS members is limited as we will be joining NERN (Niagara Escarpment Resource Network) members.
Dress appropriately for the cold weather and bring a walking stick if temperatures are below freezing. Feel free to enjoy the Marsh for those who find a 2 hour winter walk challenging.
Walk participants should also bring a bag lunch as there may not be enough time to head back to Horicon for lunch.
The following is a map of how to navigate from the Horicon March Center to the location of the start of the hike.
PLEASE NOTE: This is the Wisconsin DNR Center at the south end of the marsh and NOT the National WLR Headquarters.
