PVMN Annual Meeting

Saturday, February 4, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm

Potomac Valley Master Naturalist Annual Meeting, Potluck Lunch and Silent Auction

The purpose of the gathering is to briefly conduct PVMN business, honor our new graduates, and recognize Master Naturalists who have achieved 5-year and 10-years of active membership as well as socialize with others and, of course, eat!

Registering for this event helps us plan accordingly, please register below.

10-10:30am – Drop auction & food items and socialize

10:30am – Meeting begins

12-12:45pm – Lunch and socialize

12:45pm – Bidding closes at the end of lunch

1:00pm – Completion of gathering & pick up winning auction items

 

Potluck: We are very excited to announce that Gary & Diane Sylvester are bringing pulled pork and beans for everyone. Please bring a side dish or dessert to share as well as your own plate, cup, napkin and silverware (we will have extras in case you forget).

Silent Auction: Bring something for the Silent Auction! The proceeds from this annual auction provide scholarships to next year’s MN class. Ideas for things to contribute: books, specialty foods (pies, breads, etc), field guides, crafts, bird items, and other fun items. Most items in the auction are in new or like-new condition. In year’s past, we have made over $600, which kept the class fee lower for several of this year’s class. We’re looking to make even more this year; bring your checkbook so you can bid often and high!

Donate Books: We also have a book table where used books are available for just $1-$2. It’s a great way to pass on natural history books/field guides that might be of interest to other MN’s and pick something new at the same time.

Join the Coordinating Committee: The PVMN Coordinating Committee is seeking volunteers to help with the planning and execution of the Chapter’s yearly instructional programming and all of its day-to-day operations; if you have been thinking of joining the Committee, we will have more information available at this meeting!

The scheduled ‘snow date’ is Saturday, February 11, 2023.

We look forward to seeing our fellow Master Naturalists!
