Gunnison Wildlife Assoc. Evening Social

Gunnison Wildlife Association: National Public Lands Day Evening Social Join us for an evening of community and conservation! In celebration of National Public Lands Day, the Gunnison Wildlife Association is hosting an evening social event on Friday, October 4th. Starting at 6:00 PM, connect with fellow wildlife enthusiasts over burgers (for just a “few bucks”!) and some fantastic door prizes. At 6:30 PM, we’re excited to have BLM Wildlife Biologist Andy Stokes give a special presentation on Juniper Encroachment in the Gunnison Basin-an important topic for the future of our local public lands and wildlife habitats. Bring your friends, enjoy great food, and learn more about how you can help preserve our shared natural spaces. We can’t wait to see you there! Also, join us on Saturday, October 5th from 9:00-1:00 for a Volunteer Workday!
