Outings are free and open to the public. In the event of inclement weather, contact the leader in advance to confirm whether the outing is on or canceled. Also, contact the leader with any questions about weather, driving directions, or trail conditions. Although we, too, like our pets, it is the club's policy not to include them on our walks.
Below is a general statement that will be followed for all our outings. Also, the leader may have specific requirements that are stated in the outing description:
"It is our intention to follow the CDC and local county guidelines. We request that social distancing still be observed and encourage people not to share equipment.
The leader may have other restrictions in place and can end a walk if an uncomfortable situation arises."
In the event of a late cancellation of or a change to any of our outings, please check the Three Rivers Birding Club Facebook page or the "Items of Interest" section of the Home page of this website for the latest information on outings, cancellations, and other events that could not make our newsletter's deadline.

Dead of Winter Walk in Frick Park
Feeling stuck indoors due to winter's chill? Then bundle up and get out to join Mike Fialkovich (412-303-0010) for a winter walk at Frick Park to search for the season's resident birds. Yellow-bellied Sapsuckers spend the winter in the park, so we'll search for them, and we'll enjoy all the other birds we can find. Energetic chickadees are sure to raise your spirits. Meet at the Frick Environmental Center at 8:00 a.m.
As this is a winter outing, please monitor the club's website or Facebook page in case there has to be a sudden cancellation due to inclement weather.
