Please join us for this annual event by helping to census the varied and abundant butterfly species at the spectacular Cal-Wood Education Center. We welcome back our seasoned observers as well as those of you wanting to learn. Folks will be divided into teams that will cover the various habitats starting at 8:00 a.m. We will finish by 5 PM, including the census plus data compilation. Children are welcome with parents or chaperones versed in outdoor ethics.  More details will be provided to registered participants.

Please contact Pam Piombino for details and to reserve your spot.

Overnight Option

We still have several places for those of you who would like to join us on the 3rd and stay overnight at the camp. The cost is $62 per person which includes bed, dinner and breakfast. Please contact Pam Piombino at Piombino.pam@gmail.com for details and to reserve your spot. 

On the afternoon of the 3rd, beginning at 2 PM, we will be exploring an area not included on the official count on the 4th. During the evening of the 3rd, Scott Severs will lead an owl prowl and Pam Piombino and her team will fire up their special lights to attract moths, the night-flying butterflies.
