Club Activities

With the exception of a small number of special "members only" events, all of our activities, including walks and monthly meetings, are open to the public free of charge.  Our monthly meetings feature speakers from various organizations who bring us fascinating presentations on wildlife and the environment.  Join us at 7:30pm on the fourth Monday of each month (except in November, when our meeting takes place at the Annual Dinner, and in July and December, when there is no meeting).  Unless indicated otherwise on our calendar page, meetings are held at the Freedom Plains Presbyterian Church parish hall, located on Route 55, about 3/10 mile west of the Taconic State Parkway, across from Arlington High School.  Check our calendar for our schedule of meetings, bird walks, and other events.

Join the Club! Our club, founded in 1958, promotes conservation and research in ornithology and provides opportunities for the study and observation of birds and other wildlife. If you're not a member yet, please consider supporting us by joining up! We welcome birders of all ability and experience levels!
