PARROT CLUBS/MEETINGS: Lycoming County [PA] Parrot Society/First Meeting

Posted by ~Peggy in NE PA on 10/17/07

Lycoming County Parrot Society

First “informal” gathering scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 28,
2007 at 3pm-rescheduled from an earlier date.
Topics for Possible Discussion
The forming of this group
Equal responsibilities
A meeting place for when our group gets larger
Acting in a avian rescue capacity by forming foster homes
and adoption program.

There is a great need in this area for this type of
program. As a breeder, I get calls often from people
wanting to place their birds.
We have taken some and have re-homed them, but I have to be
very careful what I bring into my home because we have a
lot to lose if disease is brought in. That and the fact
that added birds is time consuming and space consuming.
It’s not something that just one person can do.

Charities and fund raising events for non-profit avian
organizations. We already have someone working on this, but
she can use help.
Opportunity for individuals to organize their own
undertakings for the group, so bring new ideas.
Education program that is taken to schools and nursing
homes, etc.
Breeders, avian vet. and other resource data base.
Future Avian events such as Bird Fairs and speaking events.

Refreshments will be served: If you would like to bring
something we are going to keep it simple- just snacky kind
of finger food treats.
If you live in the area, feel free to join us!
