Garden Themes & Birdhouse Dreams XI will be celebrated at Powdermill Nature Reserve on Friday, May 23, 2008 and will showcase the new Powdermill headquarters, education, and research center. We are planning a party that you and your whole family won't want to miss!

New This Year: Cocktails and the Silent Auction of birdhouses and garden-related items will take place in the new center. A seated dinner and Live Auction will follow in the adjacent party tent. Those guests wishing to continue the party atmosphere after dinner can return to the nature center for dessert and live music.

The Committee Chairs of GTBD XI have voted to direct the monies raised by this year's event to fund the renovation of Biobrook Cabin. Biobrook is currently used nine months of the year to house all categories of visitors to Powdemrill: researchers, educators, interns, and attendees at the many scientific and education symposia. As Powdemrill increases its education and research activities, housing facilities such as Biobrook must be renovated and expanded.

Garden Themes & Birdhouse Dreams XI will be the informal and fun-filled evening for the entire family that we all have known and loved over the years...and then some! We invite your support and urge you to return your response card with your check as soon as possible. The April invitation will include confirmation of your reservation. You will receive a newly designed Live Auction brochure with photographs and description of each of the 10 items and information on how to place an absentee bid 3 weeks before the party.

With your support, our Garden Themes & Birdhouse Dreams XI benefit will produce another record-breaking year. We look forward to seeing you at Powdermill!
