Tawas Point Birding Festival 2010

• Sponsorship Form
• Sponsorship Flyer

Now in its fifth year, the Tawas Point Birding Festival has gained nationwide recognition as a key destination for observing spring bird migration.  Birders from 21 states flocked to Tawas and Oscoda communities in 2009.  Due to its popularity, this year’s event will host the Annual Conference of the Michigan Audubon Society.  The support of residents and local businesses has helped build the excitement for bird watching opportunities in the area.  You can help bring even more birders—and tourist dollars—to the Michigan communities of Tawas and Oscoda during the 2010 Tawas Point Birding Festival weekend.  To ensure that your sponsorship receives proper recognition as part of the 2010 Tawas Point Birding Festival, please return the enclosed sponsor form as soon as possible, or no later than Friday, April 2, 2010.
