The goal is for teams in seven different categories to count as many species of birds as possible over a 24-hour period any time during the week beginning on Apr 12 at noon and ending at noon on April 21. This non-profit event is co-sponsored by the Environmental Studies program at Penn State Altoona and JVAS. Pledges that team members garner will support bird conservation and education in central Pennsylvania. Teams of 3 or more (2 or more for Senior citizens) will count birds in Blair and surrounding counties. Trophies will be awarded during the closing ceremony immediately following the event. Location of the closing ceremony is to be determined.
