Minutes of the Executive MeetingPrince Edward County Field Naturalists

282 Niles Street, WellingtonOctober 6, 2014

Present: Amy Bodman, Elizabeth Cowan, Sandra Dowds, Sheena Kennedy, Sheila Kuja, Agneta Sand, Myrna WoodRegrets: Cheryl Anderson

The Agenda was approved as presented.The Minutes of September 8, 2014, were approved as presented.

1. Status Reports

(A) Membership: Agneta$180 has been received as dues for the new membership year. Agneta suggested that members, especially those who haven’t paid up yet or who may be under the impression that a donation to OPAF automatically means membership, need to have it explained to them what their dues cover: not court costs but rather hall rental, speaker honoraria, insurance and other ordinary club operating expenses. Myrna agreed to draft an e-mail to the membership.

(B) Treasurer: SheenaSheena reported the following balances:

PECFN bank account: $3,412.48 OPAF bank account: $4,526.86

It was suggested that we should give a present to Bev Campbell, who has been so helpful with the income tax returns. Myrna will try to find out if she already has a copy of either the Butterfly Guide or Wind, Water, Barley and Wine.

MOTION:Moved by Sheila, seconded by Sheena and carried unanimously,THAT $1,000.00 be moved from the PECFN account to the OPAF account.

MOTION:Moved by Elizabeth, seconded by Sheila and carried unanimously,THAT $5,000.00 be paid out of the OPAF account toward Eric’s legal fees.

Myrna will draft an e-mail to the membership explaining that Eric has been paying what are known as “disbursements” (costs involved in keeping the case going) out of his own pocket and must be repaid.

(C) Programs:OutingsAmy suggested a Millennium Trail walk, Danforth to Benway, to look at the marshland. Oct.9, 1:00-3:00!p.m., was chosen. Amy will write up a description of the walk and Sandra will e‑mail it to the membership.

Mike Burrell will be giving the eBird workshop on Oct.21, 7:00-8:30!p.m., at the Picton Library. Cheryl will prepare a press release. (to be cont’d)

PAGE 11

Indoor programsOct.28: Josh Wise, Ontario Nature, will speak about the Natural Heritage System. (He says he will probably not want to spend the night but perhaps he could be given dinner, depending on when he arrives.)Nov.25: Patricia Calder will speak about the Sable Island horses.Jan.27, 2015: Membership night – Myrna will prepare an e‑mail to alert the members.Feb.24: Kyle Blaney – Myrna will contact him.Mar.31: Pamela Stagg will speak about alvars and wetlands.April 28: Nick Cairns will speak about turtle/frog/snake ecology.May 26: Ryan Norris will speak about the Monarch study.

(D) Fundraising Committee:The Butterfly Guide sales have brought in $4,090.00 so far, against printing costs of $3,402.00. Sheena will order a further 50 copies, for future events, Christmas, etc.

Terry Sprague’s coach tour will be taking place on Oct.7. Cheryl is overseeing the lunch, with the help of Amy and Sheena.

November Big Push:•! Pasternak film – Amy has spoken to the Regent about costs and to the organizer of Cinefest for ideas. She

and Sheena will approach the Devonshire Drake about a fundraiser, either combined with the film or separately. Amy will e-mail Ryan about his National Parks film, since the Pasternak documentary may be too short on its own. She will also inform the executive of what dates are possible at the Regent.

•! Municipal election – Elizabeth will find e-mail addresses for as many candidates as possible. Myrna will prepare a message to be sent to the new councillors. Agneta suggested that the same message should be sent to the membership.

•! 99.3 County FM 50-50 tickets – none of us seems to have won!…•! Art auction in spring – Cheryl has quite a few items that could be auctioned at the April fundraising dinner

catered by Michael Hoy; Sandra will ask the Curling Club about possible dates.•! Mia Lane Limited Edition print of Blanding’s turtle or other – it was felt that this would probably be

prohibitively expensive, but Sheila will ask her.

(E) PEPtBO:Fall banding continues.

(F) Ostrander Point and Tribunal:The case goes to the Appeal Court on Dec. 8-9. Nature Canada has agreed to intervene on our side if the court allows. Myrna will contact the David Suzuki Foundation. Amy will contact a freelance journalist she knows to see if he could write a piece about the case.

(G) BioBlitz report and committee:The sightings lists are completed, but John Foster’s report and pictures have not been received. It was urged that something be sent to participants as soon as possible, so they can see what was achieved. Sheila will write an article about the BioBlitz.

(H) Ontario Nature:The East Region fall meeting is being held in Deep River on Oct.18. Elizabeth, who ought to attend, is busy elsewhere that weekend. She will prepare a report on PECFN’s activities to be submitted to the meeting.

(I) Newsletter:Computer troubles persist, but it is hoped they will be fixed before the next newsletter is wanted. (to be cont’d)

2. New BusinessSheila is concerned about Sandbanks’ vocation (nature vs recreation) and will write a letter to Superintendent Robin Reilly.

Sheila felt that PECFN should be represented at the proposed “partnership” meeting being organized by MNR on Oct.16 in Campbellford, whatever our doubts about the meeting’s usefulness. She and Amy volunteered to attend. Myrna will draft notes for the 10-minute presentation that participants are allowed, and notify MNR that PECFN will be there.The meeting was adjourned at 12:45!p.m.

Next meeting: Oct.27, 2014, 10:00!a.m., 282 Niles Street, Wellington.
