JOIN OUR
LOCAL CHAPTER!!
 Historically, to join Audubon, you would simply join the
National organization. You would automatically become a Flathead
Audubon Society chapter member and receive the newsletter as
well as the national magazine. The National organization would
support our chapter by sharing the membership dues with us.
This is no longer the case. National Audubon has been gradually
reducing its financial support to the local chapters and is
encouraging them to become self-supporting. We currently receive
from National less than half the cost of printing and postage
for the newsletter. So, we (along with many other chapters
nation-wide) have instituted a Chapter Membership.
For $15 you can join Flathead Audubon, receive the newsletter,
be part of the action here, and support all of our local
programs: monthly meetings, field trips, Owen-Sowerwine
management, school and adult education programs.
Flathead
Audubon memberships all renew in October. Thus, if you join in
May or October, your membership will expire in October.
You can still join National Audubon, of course. Your membership
fee will support National’s many excellent nation-wide education
and conservation programs but you will not be supporting the
local chapter. With a National membership you receive both
the Audubon magazine and the Flathead Audubon monthly
newsletter. The National Audubon fee is $20 for first-time
members, and then $35 per year to renew your membership after
that. Special rates apply for Seniors and students.
We strongly suggest that you join Flathead Audubon and then
choose either to join National Audubon or not. Without local
members the chapter will have to reduce its programs in the
future.
