TBFN will be offering our first talk for the fall season as an in-person talk only. TBFN will be following all provincial COVID-19 protocols and guidelines. Please note that Lunan Hall at St. Paul’s United Church will only allow for a capacity of 75 people. We ask our members to arrive ahead of time so that we can adequately monitor the flow of people. Everyone entering the hall will need to sign in for contact tracing purposes. Individuals attending must wear masks.

This summer, TBFN relaunched its Youth Programming with three new program streams: the Wolf Packs, the Efts, and the Nature Explorers With Technology (NEWT). We will give an overview of these new programs which together provide educational nature and science-themed events for children, families, and youth up to 19 years of age. We will share some highlights from this summer and a sneak peek at what’s to come this year.  Speakers will include Courtney Moudoux and Gene Kent.

Several TBFN members will present brief updates on community science initiatives that have been undertaken by the TBFN. Meeting participants will hear about the Gray Fox Project, Thunder Cape Bird Observatory, the Bluebird Project, and several other TBFN initiatives, as well as potential future projects. Speakers will include Rob Foster, Allan Harris, Susan Robinson and Ted Armstrong.
