Toner Cartridge
Recycle Program
Blackbrook Audubon
continues to collect used inkjet and laser
toner cartridges to recycle. The
cartridges we need have a manufacturer’s
name on them and have not been previously
recycled. Anything that says
“compatible with” or “not OEM” are not
acceptable.
Please bring your used cartridges to any
Blackbrook program, bird walk or field trip.
We collect these until we have a minimum of
25 to ship to
Clover Environmental Solutions
We
appreciate the opportunity to turn “trash
into cash” to benefit Blackbrook’s mission
of conservation and education.

Blackbrook's
Educational Mission
We are seeking sponsors to enable us
to continue providing Audubon Adventures (an educational
curriculum that covers ecology and conservation topics
important to our mission) to 3rd-5th grade
classes in Lake and Geauga Counties. These classroom kits
can be used across the curriculum and offer correlations
to National Language Arts and Science Standards. The cost
for an entire class (32 students) is only $45.95
(including shipping and handling). Blackbrook Audubon
relies on Birdathon contributions and Friend’s of
Blackbrook donations to help fund expenses and special
projects such as this. With the start of a new budget
year, the Board finds that we need a little extra help.
Please consider sponsoring one or more subscriptions with
a donation. You can donate online via paypal or checks can
be made out to “Blackbrook Audubon” (designate “Audubon
Adventures” on the memo line) and brought to a
program/meeting or mailed to: Blackbrook Audubon, Box
1306, Mentor OH 44061-1306.

Join us for
bird walks at MENTOR LAGOONS
GREAT
NEWS! Blackbrook Audubon has decided conduct a seventh
year of bird monitoring. We will be collecting data on the
birds that live or visit Mentor Lagoons Nature Preserve.
Adjacent to a marina, this unique, 450 acres of green
space and
nature and water trails features a mile and a half of wild
beach and five miles of hiking trails that meander through
a coastal forest and marsh.
We will
be conducting one bird walk a month for a year! These
walks will take place on the 4th Sundays (8 A.M.) Everyone
who is interested in lending their eyes and ears, meet at
the preserve parking area at 8365 Harbor Drive, Mentor, OH
44060.
The first bird walk at Mentor Lagoons
Nature Preserve will start on Sunday, May 27, 2012. See
website below for more information on
