We would like to remind everyone about the Ladd Marsh Bird Festival 2022 scheduled for May 13-15. Check the FOLM website for a list of activities,
www.friendsofladdmarsh.org.
Plan on visiting the opening night social/registration event that will be held at the La Grande Senior Center from 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm. This casual drop-in event will feature music, food, merchandise for sale, and registration for the festival events. Those
who pre-register online will have a packet of materials and passports waiting for them to pick up at the Senior Center or Saturday at Tule Lake on the Ladd Marsh Wildlife Area. You can also register at the Friday night event and sign-up for any field trips
that might still have openings. Registration will also be available 6:00 am until noon at Tule lake, LMWA on Saturday the 14th. Packets and passports will be available both Friday night and Saturday morning for those who have not pre-registered. Remember,
each participant will need to have a passport for entrance into most areas of the LMWA during the Bird Festival.
