If you would like to participate in the leadership activities of Tampa Audubon or have any other questions, please contact Carolyn McKinney at 884-0578.

The Audubon Research Center (ARC) in the Park (Lettuce Lake Park continues to meet the needs of visitors, both members and general public. We are pleased and proud of our strong and viable, cooperative relationship with Hillsborough County’s Park Recreation and Conservation Department. Mike and Barbara Mullins, our Environmental Education Coordinators, continue to provide leadership and environmental outreach activities at the Center. Come out to the Center, and enjoy nature!

Our program and Field Trip schedules, as well as, past issues of Avocet, our chapter newsletter, are posted here on our website. Please check to see what’s happening when and where! Please take a minute, mark these events on your calendar, and plan to participate! We always have a lot of fun!
