The event runs from 5:00 p.m until dusk. There will be booths with
informative displays and nature-related items. One booth allows children and
adults to touch actual bird "skins" and to compare the sizes of different
species of birds. There will be activities for children plus a spaghetti
dinner booth with dessert. And you won't want to miss Larry Schwitters'
lecture on Vaux's Swifts at 6:30 p.m.

This is a big deal for the little town of Monroe, and having a bunch of
people turn out helps the cause of protecting the swifts. Lots of fun for
the whole family. Hope to see you there,
