Once again, the IOU will be conducting a silent auction during the 
upcoming spring meeting at Bettendorf.  The silent auction offers you an 
opportunity to share bird and nature books, birding gear, artwork, etc.  that 
you no longer use with other IOU members, and at the same time, support the 
excellent publications of the IOU. 
     Over the years, the silent auction has raised well over $2,000.  It will 
start at the Friday evening reception and will close after the banquet on 
Saturday evening.   
     As always, we can use additional auction items.  If you have something to 
contribute, you may simply bring it with you to the meeting, or you can drop it 
by my house in Des Moines.  If you opt for the latter, you should call first at 
515-277-5709.  If I’m not home to receive it, my wife Mary or son John can 
arrange to be here.
     If you have a question about what to contribute, feel free to contact me, 
but please do it quickly since I will be pretty much incommunicado for ten days 
during the last half of April.
     See you in Bettendorf!
     Thanks!
