2025 Annual Dinner features our own Maria Mudd Ruth!

The evening includes: a catered dinner, opportunities to purchase exciting “Events and Adventures”, socializing with friends, hearing about our chapter’s work and accomplishments this past year, and a talk from our featured speaker, author Maria Ruth, about her work with Pigeon Guillemots in Puget Sound. It will be an unforgettable evening. Her presentation, “My Big Decade: One Seabird, One Place, One Community” will enlighten and educate us on the amazing behaviors and traits of this captivating bird. Her book on this subject is slated to be published in the Spring of 2026.
