Upcoming Events:
2018 OWLS Potluck at Swamplovers!!
Gerry Goth From Swamplovers has graciously agreed to host our Annual OWLS Potluck at Swamplovers Foundation. We are looking at a late May or Early June date on a Saturday or Sunday, most likely May 19th - 20th or June 2nd - 3rd weekends, so as to avoid Memorial Day. This will be a picnic style event under the shelters on top of the hill. Electrical hookups are available on top, and vehicle transport to top will be allowed. Please give your feedback via email. Tom Baumberger will send out general email.
Gerry is excited to show up their Oak Savanna Restoration progress and talk about their strategies and new "tools"!
Join us for a great day of ecological fellowship, great food, discussions, and view and walk the awesome prairies and savannas at Swamplovers near Cross Plains, WI! Directions and the Swamplovers website can be accessed at: http://www.swamploversfoundation.org/maps/

2017 OWLS Spring Potluck or Backyard Picnic?: Yet to be decided. Either a early Spring Potluck or a Late Spring Backyard Picnic will be discussed shortly. The Late Spring Picnic is an option that could be held after Spring Burn Season commences, and would offer an option for those OWLS with Homesteads that would better accommodate hosting an outdoor OWLS meal gathering.
2016 OWLS Spring Potluck: To be held on March 20th, 2016 at Keith Symon's Property. Property walkabout begins at 3:30 p.m. and Potluck will start at 5:00 p.m. Please see contacts and RSVP with Peggy Timmerman by March 13th.
