Providing interpretive education on wetlands and wildlife, panoramic views, water quality, weather, natural resource management, trails, bird watching, recreation, exhibits, displays and an eagles nest, Jackson Bottom Wetlands Preserve is a treasure of the Hillsboro community.
36 imaginative and well-crafted entries were received for the contest. Thank you to everyone who donated their creations. The entries will be judged in mid-March and the winners will be notified as soon as possible. Entries will be displayed at various Hillsboro locations during the month of April and will be auctioned at the May 1 fundraising auction.
The auction will be held on May 1 at the Wetlands Education Center, from 6:30 to 9:30. Tickets are $35.00 pp. There will be a silent and oral auction. In addition to the birdhouse contest entries, many other items will be auctioned, such as golfing passes and equipment, household items, artwork, hotel stays, wine, and a fishing trip. Hors d’oeuvres will be served and wine and beer will be available.
