The NEW Puffin

The NEW Puffin is going digital! For those who want less paper in their mailbox, we are starting an online edition of our newsletter. If you would like to be placed on the "green" digital list, please email our new Editor-in-Chief, Christina Anderson, using the email address she will provide in November's edition.

Fear not those who prefer the mailed paper edition: it will still be available and completely support and respect those who read over our contributions in hardcopy. Thank you for your continued support!

BOARD VACANCIES

Hi Auduboners,

We always are on the lookout for new board members. Two vacancies in particular will be coming up soon.

• In order to keep the hiking program going this summer, Katie will need an assistant.
• Starting next fall we'll also need someone to help with the newsletter.

Any takers out there? Give me a call at 486-3673 if either of these jobs or if just being involved with the board in a different capacity sounds intriguing.
