At today's wildlife club meeting we discussed possible service projects:
- Plant pulls
- Beach clean ups
- Gull ID's
Yesss. Sign me up!
We also started discussing ideas for club t-shirt designs. Mint green was unanimous. However, the animals...deer, ducks, coyotes, owls, turkeys, etc.
Now, instead of coming up with key looks for my trend report I'm playing around with wildlife designs. This was fun.
We ended the meeting with Conclave Trivia. Only four students have to participate in the trivia part and students who have taken wildlife courses are preferred. Phew! You can bet your butt I still took notes. :)
