Georgia Big Day Fundraiser

 Hello Pendleton King Park Stewards!

I have some exciting news to share. Three of my friends and I will be attempting to break the record for the most birds seen in Georgia in a 24-hour period late next week. This is an on-going multi-year effort, and we are striving for 200 species this year. It's a marathon birding event that will take us from Augusta to the coast, and we'll be stopping in at Pendleton King to add a few species in the morning. 

We have been choosing charities to feature and have selected the Pendleton King Restoration Initiative this year as our cause. We're nearing the $4,000 mark of of $5,000 goal and hope to push through! This money will be applied directly to conservation measures at Pendleton King Park to benefit the birds that utilize the woods at PKP. With these funds, we hope to buy chainsaws and sawing equipment to remove exotic invasive trees, native trees to replace the invasive trees, hand tools, PPE, Purple Martin houses, Bluebird boxes, and more. 

Please consider contributing to our GoFundMe and spread the word!!!
