As each of you are acutely aware, we as a country and the world as a whole are facing unprecedented times with the COVID -19 Pandemic. Ogeechee Audubon is responding to this crisis by putting the health and welfare of our members as the number one priority in making any decision about any activities of our organization. With that in mind the Board has decided to suspend all Ogeechee Audubon sponsored activities indefinitely. The minute we get an all clear and we feel it is safe to begin meeting again and going out together birdwatching we will be in touch!
Our April meeting is the time designated in the By Laws for our Annual Meeting and the election of officers. We are postponing the Annual Meeting until the next meeting of the membership which is to be determined based on the timeline dictated by the virus. Our By Laws do not specifically address a pandemic situation so we believe since our activities are suspended, at the first opportunity when we can safely reconvene we will have the Annual meeting and hold the elections. In the meantime, the present officers will continue to serve.
We miss each of you. Birds are everywhere so we can continue to birdwatch from our windows at home while we shelter in place. Please take care of yourselves and your loved ones. Be safe!
