The Friends of Grand Lake Audubon Society recently donated 30 Young Birder bags to GUE to start our own Young Birders Club. We have several teachers who are going to use the bags as an activity in their classroom. We are excited to get our kids outside to enjoy and learn more about the natural world around them. The bags were made possible by a grant from Rotary. Thank you Rotary! By supporting other organizations in town, you are also supporting our students!
