It’s Almost Time!

Hello Wildlifers!
Our 2016 Annual Meeting is almost here! Are you prepared to mark your territory in Seaside?
REGISTRATION
Online registration is closed, but you can still show up as a walk-in! If you’d like to make your check-in even faster, contact ortws.treasurer@gmail.com to settle any outstanding payments.
ELECTIONS
Cast your vote Wednesday for new board positions. You can review the candidates here. If you can’t attend Wednesday, download a ballot and send to ortws.secretary@gmail.com by Wednesday at noon.
PHOTO CONTEST
Bring your amazing pictures and enter to win fabulous prizes! Photos should be mounted on a firm backing – and bring a digital version for display on the ORTWS website or in future programs! If you don’t have time to print, bring the digital version along and for a printing fee we’ll take care of the rest.
RAFFLE AND AUCTION
Support our grants program and donate an item for the raffle or silent auction! Donations are tax deductible.
FIELD TRIPS
If you are going to the Beach Clean Up or Salamander Hunt, be prepared for the weather! There is a chance of rain, and for Salamanders foot gear that can get into streams might be a good idea (but aren’t required)-rubber boots, hip waders, etc.
WORKSHOP – Persuasive Speaking
Ever give a presentation or answer questions about your work and wish those listening could just “get it?” Join us with Michael Fraidenburg to learn the barriers that prevent logical data from convincing an audience, and ways to get through those barriers. There are still 5 spots open in our Communications workshop! Contact Vanessa Blackstone (ortws.treasurer@gmail.com) to reserve your seat.
