Hear, share news at our annual general meeting
Wednesday, March 10, at 7:30 p.m.
It's been a long, trying year for many. We hope you've had time to enjoy nature. We want to hear about your finds. Come to our annual general meeting on Wednesday, March 10, at 7:30 p.m. on Zoom to find out the latest news and share your nature stories.
 
This is also the meeting at which we review the club's finances and elect the executive for the coming year.
 
Below are links to the treasurer's report and the Zoom meeting. We've also posted the Zoom meeting link in the events calendar on the Essex County Nature website.
 
If you have any questions or have trouble with the Zoom link, email membership secretary Ellen van Wageningen.
