We're sorry, Jr. Audubon Club is
taking a break in 2011-2012 to
reorganize. We are hoping to have a
new and improved programming format in
September 2012. Please share your
ideas for the future of Jr.
Audubon, please send them to birdsanctuary@kbs.msu.edu
History & Partners
Jr. Audubon Club began in 2007 with the
support and ideas of the Kalamazoo Nature
Center and Audubon Society of Kalamazoo.
In 2010 the partner organizations grew to
include W.K. Kellogg Bird Sanctuary and Battle
Creek Brigham Audubon.
All of the partner organizations have an
interest in encouraging families to spend more
time outside and are using the exciting
activity of looking for birds
("birding"), as a club theme.
Jr. Audubon of Kalamazoo, Calhoun & Barry
Counties was a monthly club for 3rd-12th
graders (age 8-17) and their
families focused on exploring the
exciting world of birds!
Jr. Audubon Club met once a month at
different locations and focused on bird
identification skills and learning more about
the natural world. An exciting part of
the programming was discovering new places to
explore throughout Barry, Calhoun and
Kalamazoo Counties.
