Seeking Volunteers!
Please give us a hand with membership duties. Someone is needed to maintain the membership rosters, the e-newsletter list, and print out mailing labels for the monthly newsletter. The estimated time commitment is approximately 2 hours per month. If you are interested, please email Janet Jokela or Darin Eastburn. Thank you.

Get your Meadowlark Messenger via email
The e-newsletter gives you the same important information you value, while helping your membership dues go farther. When you subsribe, it reduces costs for printing and mailing, freeing up more resources to support education and conservation.

You can also feel good knowing you are reducing the need for paper, and, you will get your e-newsletter sooner than the paper copy! Thank you!

Seeking CCAS Friends
If you have not already done so, please consider supporting CCAS as a “CCAS Friend.” As a member of the National Audubon Society, you are also automatically a member of the Champaign County Audubon Society; however, NAS has largely phased out their dues sharing program in which CCAS once received a share of the dues that you paid for National membership. When you become a Friend of CCAS, we keep 100% of your CCAS Friend donation. This support will help us to be financially self sufficient, while sharing the same goals as National Audubon. Please click here for more information. We are grateful for your support. Thank you!
