Calendar of Events

Most field trips start at the Sioux Falls Outdoor Campus parking lot. Car pooling is standard procedure, with passengers chipping in a few dollars for gas or a wash. Cars will be equipped with 2-way radios for instant communication with other vehicles. Usually, the group is back between noon and 1:00 PM . If you are a beginning birder, we welcome you. The only item you need to bring is a pair of binoculars . New SFBC members get a club shoulder patch.
