Online registration for this year’s BioBlitz! at Kaw Lake is now open! The inventory will be Friday Oct 8th 3:00 p.m. until Saturday Oct 9th at 3:00 p.m. with base camp at Camp McFadden on the western shore of Kaw Lake. If there is sufficient interest, we may also hold a camp fire discussion on Saturday evening.
There are a few changes to this year’s registration procedure. Please read carefully the following information before registering —
Online preregistration is open from April 12 – October 3. Cost is $5 for students, $15 for non-students.
Late on-site registration will be more expensive: $10 students and $25 for non-students.
You must register by September 20 to be guaranteed a t-shirt.
Everyone must register individually, including students (except children 5 and under – they may attend for free).
BioBlitz! will only be cancelled or postponed in the case of severe, dangerous weather. BioBlitz! will be held if it rains. There will be no refund of registration fees in the event that BioBlitz is cancelled or rescheduled. Your registration fee will be considered a donation to the BioBlitz! and used to organize future events.
Registration includes:
2 nights tent camping at Camp McFadden during event (bathhouse with showers available to all participants)
Event t-shirt
Friday night picnic
Saturday morning early, light breakfast
All educational activities held during weekend
Cabins and RV hook-ups are available at an additional cost. There are six cabins that sleep 10 people for $35 per night. There are six electric RV sites (no sewer) for $15 per night. If interested, please contact me to make reservations. These are available on a first-come first-serve basis.
Also, if you would like to participate as a BioBlitz! educator by leading an activity or helping with the Junior Biologist program, please let me know. We would love to have new people helping to make BioBlitz! fun and educational.
