Stan Temple Will Speak on Urban Natural Areas at the FCNA Annual Meeting

The first annual general membership meeting of the Friends of the Campus Natural Areas will take place on Tuesday, April 23, 2002, at 7 P.M. at the McKay Center in the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum.  All members of the Friends of the CNA and everyone interested in learning more about the Campus Natural Areas are invited to attend.

We are pleased to have Stanley A. Temple as our guest speaker for the evening.  Professor Temple is the Beers-Bascom Professor in Conservation in the Department of Wildlife Ecology at the UW-Madison.  The title of his presentation is “Urban Natural Areas: Balancing Ecological and Social Needs.” 

The annual meeting of members will begin with a brief business meeting to vote on a Bylaws amendment and to elect the FCNA Board of Directors.  Twelve Friends of the CNA have been nominated as Board members and will stand for election, four for a 3 year term, four for a 2 year term, and four for a 1 year term.   In future years, members will elect only four Directors to serve a 3 year term. 

There will be an informal reception and refreshments following the program: Visit with Professor Temple, meet the Board members, share your concerns!
