Chapter Monthly Meeting - April 30th

Our April CNY Ike Chapter meeting is going to be held 

this coming Tuesday (4/30) evening - 7PM, on the SUNY ESF Campus.

It is the chapter's hope that, by holding a meeting on ESF's campus, it will be easier for a good number of our Young Naturalists Leadership Team to attend a regular chapter meeting -- along with some new faces from the college community!
