Summary
Committee members said the township has earned participation points toward Bird Town bronze status and discussed a Bird Town table for an open house, youth outreach through the recreation committee, and posting membership signage; a City Island festival date is TBD.
At its June 2 meeting, the Silver Spring Township Conservation & Preservation Committee discussed plans to staff a Bird Town information table at an upcoming open house and to increase outreach to younger residents. Clifford Jarrett, a committee member, reported the township recently earned participation points that will contribute toward achieving bronze status in the Bird Town program.
