<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello, everyone, this is a reminder that we'll be
gathering for our monthly meeting Tuesday evening, August 26, at our regular
time of 7 p.m. After a brief business meeting, Elizabeth Gerlock will tell
us about adventures in Morocco, where she and Alice Cannon travelled last
fall. We'll get updates on the annual meeting we're hosting in October,
and after all that we'll gather for refreshments and time to get acquainted with
new members. </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If you haven't met with us before, we meet at the
REgion II headquarters of the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency on the
Ellington Agricultural Center campus. Here's how to find us from Edmonson
Pike.
<P>DIRECTIONS: From the intersection of Edmondson Pike with Old Hickory Blvd (at
Nippers Corner), go north 1.5 miles, then turn left into the back entrance of
Ellington Agricultural Center. Go 1/2 mile, then bear right up the hill. TWRA is
on the right. (<A

<P>Questions? Call me at 517-6486. </P>
<P>Next month's program: Todd Crabtree, botanist with the Tennessee
Division of Natural Areas, will help us identify those mystifying flowers and
ferns we see along Tennessee's trails. Bring photos of finds that have
baffled you, and we'll get our heads together to figure them out. We'll
have wildflower books there, and Todd will give us some tips on how to use
them effectively - just in time to learn about the goldenrods, asters
and liatris that color the Tennessee landscape in the fall.</P>
<P>I hope to see you tomorrow night!</P></FONT></DIV>
