Hello to all present and prospective members of the Fredericton Nature Club.
Thanks to an increase in membership, the enthusiasm of members, and a rich variety of presentations and outings, 2023 was a good year for our club. Autumn 2023 was notable with planning for the club year completed ahead of time, with a social time at the beginning of meetings, and with special events like the two-part birdwatching workshops.
At the same time, with more events and tighter scheduling, there is a risk of conflict in planning and a greater need for consultation with the executive. Therefore, the club executive came up with the idea of an event-planning form not only for the sake of planning but also because of insurance concerns. So before you plan a Club event, please consult the online calendar at the bottom of the webpage at: http://www.frederictonnatureclub.com/meetings and complete the event planning form on the website at: http://www.frederictonnatureclub.com/event_form. This form will be reviewed by the executive, and applicants will receive an email response. Approved events will be noted on the online calendar and be covered by our insurance through Nature NB.
Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
Wishing you a happy New Year with rewarding nature observations!
Regards,
The FNC Executive
