Greetings ABS Community,

The following dates are opportunities for viewing slides (and some video) taken on the first 90 mile leg of the Bayou to Bay project. This leg, leaving from the Ockley bridge in South Highlands-Shreveport to the Red River in Natchitoches, took six glorious days on Bayou Pierre.

If you are not familiar, the two groups hosting these slide shows do a tremendous amount in our area towards education, conservation, and helping people enjoy our great-local outdoors. Please contact me if you would like to help arrange a slide show for a group you are a member of.

Friends of Red River National Wildlife Refuge -- Monday, April 23, 6:30 p.m. 
The meeting will be held in the (new, amazing, and conveniently located) Environmental Education Center at the Red River National Wildlife Refuge Visitor Center, 150 Eagle Bend Point (at the end of Sunflower Road), Bossier City, LA 71112. For detailed directions, go to http://www.friendsofredriver.org.

The Bayou Chapter of the Ozark Society -- Tuesday, May 15, 6:30 p.m.
