Tropical Audubon Board Appreciation Award
presented by TAS President Joe Barros and TAS Education & Advocacy Director Stephanie Clements
Tropical Audubon Society members and friends are invited to celebrate local conservation heroes, and hear from our headliner Ron Magill, Zoo Communications and Media Relations Director and Zoo Miami/Nikon Ambassador USA, who will talk about a subject close to his heart: “Preserving our Precious Pine Rocklands.”
Attendees can also take a bird walk (it’s Spring Migration!), savor Sports Grill sliders, Bird Bar libations and enjoy live music by local folk artist Grant Livingston. Between bites attendees can duck inside the Historic Doc Thomas House to browse and bid on a tempting array of Silent Auction items.
A Conservation Heroes Awards Ceremony hosted by TAS President José Francisco Barros will follow Magill’s Keynote address. The ceremony will recognize outstanding environmental role models in their respective fields of endeavor. These citizen volunteers and public servants have dedicated themselves to protecting and preserving area wildlife, critical habitat and/or our region’s natural resources.
