"There are, in my opinion, too many specialists and too few naturalists in the world today." — Willis S. Blatchley |

The 86th Year: Continuing the Trend
Over the past few years we have witnessed a breath of new life in the Blatchley Nature Study Club. After several years of slow membership attrition we have welcomed several newer younger members. This infusion has brought new energy to the club.
We have witnessed the broadening of our programs to include some field studies and have attracted a larger number of guests for our spring Wild Flower Walks. In addition, the substantial improvements to the sanctuary trails that have been made over the last couple of years are. thanks in a large part to some of these newer younger members.
My hope is that this is just the beginning of a movement to new members and expanded programs. For 2008 I am asking all of our members to search their acquaintances and talents with the improvement of the Blatchley Nature Study Club in mind. — Pat Crimans, President
