Special Raffle

Everyone who registers this year will be put in a drawing for a special chance to visit the Big Spring Restoration Site.  This waterfowl hotspot is closed to the public, but the ODNR has issued a one-time permit for a group of four to bird the site.  Winner will be drawn after the last speaker at the church.

Big Spring Winter Adventure

This is a great chance to experience one of the best birding opportounities in Ohio.  Because it never freezes the big spring is the focal point for large numbers of wintering waterfowl.
