The local Audubon chapter is partnering with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board and community groups on a plan to revitalize the Roberts Bird Sanctuary. They are gathering public input, and it's important that birders speak up early in the process, to contribute our perspective on bird conservation and to balance input that the Park Board might receive from people more interested in accessibility, mosquito control, jogging or other mixed use activities, etc.
For more information, or to fill out a brief survey, go to the ACM web site; http://audubonchapterofminneapolis.org/. The survey deadline is September 15. Also, the last public meeting is at the ACM monthly meeting on Tuesday, September 7 from 7:00 - 8:00 pm at Mayflower Congregational Church at 106 East Diamond Lake Road in Minneapolis. (That will be followed by a program about the sanctuary from 8-9.)
