Friends of Ada Hayden Heritage Park
Our annual membership meeting is coming up soon and YOU are invited! It will be held at Ames Public Library Brown Auditorium in downtown Ames on Tuesday evening, April 2. We’ll have another of Tana Tesdall’s wildlife webcam videos from the park, a talk by naturalist Wolf Oesterreich on “Common Fauna of Ada Hayden Heritage Park”, a President’s report on happenings in the past year, a discussion of park plans for the next year, and a short business meeting.
We’ll begin at 5:30 p.m. with some light snacks and refreshments and then at 6 with the meeting. We should be done by 8 p.m. We hope you’ll join us and participate in your Friends organization.
Just as the park became a reality because of citizens' participation, this Friends group thrives best when all members participate. I hope to see you there on April 2.
Please RSVP by Friday, March 29 so we can order enough food.
Thanks!
Jim Pease, President
