Monthly Raffles
At each general meeting we hold a raffle to help raise funds to cover operating expenses. We offer great and useful prizes. Tickets are one for $1 or six for $5. Come join in on the fun! Be sure to come early and enjoy refreshments while chatting with fellow birders and nature enthusiasts.
If you have anything you would like to donate for the raffle, you may do so at the monthly meeting or let us know by email to make other arrangements. All funds raided at the raffles are used for operating expenses.
The Birdy Bakers of RRAS
Many thanks to those who support our general meetings with refreshments. All of our members appreciate your delicious efforts. If anyone would enjoy bringing refreshments to the general meeting, please let our Hospitality Chair, Marilyn Mackett, at (702) 256-8970.
Volunteers
Got a few hours free each month to sit around a table and talk with friends about birding, conservation issues, and plan activities for Red Rock Audubon Society? Maybe eat a few brownies, too? If so, then volunteer to become a Board or Committee member. Right now we’re in need of Field Trip and Education Chairs, and we can always use help covering the information tables at events Red Rock Audubon participates in.
Email us if you’re able to help out in any way, even if it’s only on an occasional basis. Sign up sheets for the various events will be at our monthly meetings or you can send an email us to let us know you’re interested in helping out. Just an hour or two is usually all that’s needed.
