Chippewa Valley Audubon Club

Chippewa Valley Audubon Club Meetings are held in Mt. Pleasant, Michigan. We were established in 1951 to promote the appreciation of nature and the responsible use of our natural resources.

The Chippewa Valley Audubon Club is a chapter of the Michigan Audubon Society and is affiliated with the National Audubon Society. Membership is open to anyone, of any age, who enjoys the natural world and who would enjoy the fellowship of others of the same concerns and interests. We encourage the involvement of kids through programs and outings of particular interest to them. Officers
