     MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION: 
     
    

    
     At the present time we have little information on who the members of the 
     
     Society are or what their interests in natural history are. Our membership is 
     
     now approaching 200 people and attendance at meetings is between 30 and 40 
     
     people with occasionally 50 or 60 people attending meetings. 0n field trips, 
     
     attendance has been very poor with from 0 to 10 people joining the trip leader. 
     
     In this light we wish to know more about what your interests are so that the 
     
     Society can serve them better.
