Welcome Interim Executive Director James Morgese
"I am very pleased to be named the Interim Executive Director of the Tahoma Audubon Society...I spent a career in public broadcasting and retired in 2020-right as the pandemic shut the country down for two years. Public broadcasting was a calling for me, especially in the near past era of misinformation, [it served] as a beacon of truth and honesty that could be trusted.
My new calling with TAS is another passion of mine-protecting and advocating for the environment which is increasingly changing.
I hope you will join with me as we endeavor to preserve our natural resources and environment for future generations."
October Speaker Series: The Temptation of Trees
Thursday, October 27th, 6:30 to 7:30
This film by Andrea Sparrow from the Arctic Arts Project focuses on how nurturing existing forests can capture more carbon than growing new trees.
This program also includes the annual report from TAS Conservation Committee. Co-chair Eric Siebel will inform you on the local efforts to revise tree ordinance, restore forests and prairies along Clover Creek and save miles of county shoreline beaches.
Homeschoolers: Check out this program at Morse Preserve!
Volunteer with Tahoma Audubon at Thriftapalooza!
Tahoma Audubon has been offered a table at Thriftapalooza in November, on Saturday the 5th and Sunday the 6th at the Convention Center in downtown Tacoma. With the recent explosion in the popularity of thrift shopping, this is a great opportunity for Tahoma Audubon to reach South Sound residents of all ages! We will be sharing info about our upcoming classes and ongoing activities around the community, as well as selling posters and books with all proceeds being donations to TAS. Sales will be cash only, whole dollar amounts for simplicity. Volunteers get to choose a poster (pictured above) to take home, and are welcome to a free Tahoma Audubon Tee-Shirt (available sizes are limited).
