Scope and Content Note

From the Series:

Includes the minutes of the regular meetings of the Bird Club as well as those of the Executive Board and the Board of Directors. Also includes the meeting minutes of various committees/subcommittees, including the Thorncrag Sanctuary Committee and Education and Stewardship committees among others; many of the minutes from later years include supporting documentation. Also includes annual reports and memoranda to the Board of Directors. Included... with many of the regular meeting minutes and some of the Board of Directors minutes are photocopies of news articles reporting on the club's programs and events. Initially, regular meetings were held on a monthly basis but this schedule becomes irregular in the 1940s. By the 1980s the regular meeting schedule is again on a monthly basis with no meetings held from May to September. Gaps exist in the documentation of these meetings, particularly those held from 1935-1954 and 1959-1962; no minutes of regular meetings were taken after March 1991. The Thorncrag Sanctuary Committee was formed in 1986 to oversee and manage the bird club's stewardship activities at the sanctuary. Annual Reports, written by long time secretary Daisy Dill Norton, give an overview of the years' programs and events. These reports apparently ended in 1949; gaps exist for the 1930s.
