Kodiak Audubon's March Program

Make it your Big Year-Discover Local Birds with Audubon


Kodiak Audubon Society’s March Program is a free movie night and owling outing after the movie.  
We will screen the movie The Big Year on Friday, March 30, 2012  at 7:00 p.m.in room 128-130 at the Kodiak College in the Benny Benson Building. 

In The Big Year, an extraordinary race becomes a transformative journey for wealthy industrialist Stu (Steve Martin), computer code-writer Brad (Jack Black), and successful contractor Kenny (Owen Wilson), who race across the continent on a “Big Year,” a whirlwind competition to see who can identify the most species of birds in North American within one calendar year.




Join us after the movie to make it your Big Year and discover local birds with Audubon. Please dress warmly if you plan to join us for owling after the movie. 


For more information you can contact Cindy Trussell at 486-2878.
