TOS Spring Meeting
May 2 - May 4
The Chattanooga Chapter of TOS is looking forward to hosting the annual spring meeting on May 2-4. Early May should be an excellent time for field trips and visiting our beautiful city. The meeting sites are a short walking distance from each other, and steps from Aquarium Plaza in downtown Chattanooga.
Friday evening’s reception will be held at the Courtyard by Marriott Chattanooga Downtown, from 5-8 PM. Registration packets, name badges, and field trip sign-ups will be available during the reception, and also in the morning prior to field trips. Saturday afternoon’s Board of Directors meeting will also take place at the Courtyard Marriott. Saturday night’s banquet and program, beginning at 6PM, will be at nearby Puckett’s Restaurant. Dinner will be a buffet with conventional and vegetarian choices. There are numerous other restaurants in downtown Chattanooga and the vicinity. We will be able to accommodate only 70 people for the dinner and speaker program on Saturday evening, so register soon.
For Saturday night’s program, Dr. David Aborn, professor of ornithology at UTC, presents “What’s in a Name? Background and Discussion on the Proposed Changes to North American Bird Names”. Dr Aborn has developed a highly entertaining and informative visual presentation, guaranteed to generate a lively discussion!
A room block will be held for TOS through April 10 at the Courtyard Marriott at the special rate of $189/night. Breakfast and parking are included. The price for the banquet/program is $25. Book your group rate by April 2nd.
