Communication & Participation

In 2021, Lake County Audubon began to publish an email newsletter. The email newsletter replaced The Audubon Outlook, a paper newsletter that was previously mailed to recipients.

Prior to 2021, Lake County Audubon published a newsletter that was mailed to our membership. Archived copies are now available online.

In addition to Program Meetings Lake County Audubon Society holds monthly board meetings and committee meetings as needed for planning activities. 

We encourage interested people to participate in activities such as

  • bird and nature walks

  • tabling event public outreach

  • educational outreach

  • members of our Birdscaping and Sharing Our Shores - Waukegan project committees.
