Washington Birding Trail forum set for Toppenish

April 17, 2008

YAKIMA -- A forum to gather input on what should be included in the next route of Audubon's Great Washington State Birding Trail will be held next Wednesday, from
4 to 7 p.m. at the Heritage Inn Restaurant of the Yakima Heritage Cultural Center in Toppenish.

Previous meetings have already been held in Kennewick, Walla Walla, Spokane and Ellensburg, but the Toppenish meeting is expected to be the largest gathering for one simple reason: The new route will entail South Central Washington, including places like the Toppenish National Wildlife Refuge, Cowiche Canyon, Tieton River Nature Trail and Umtanum Recreation Area.
