SUMMARY:Austin - Happy Hour: Learn about ecological restoration from an expert!
DESCRIPTION:                                  \nJoin Save Barton Creek Association for our monthly happy hour speaker series! Every month we host a different environmental expert to share their expertise\, from sustainable living to developing policy\, you’ll walk away with new connections and valuable information! \nThis month\, we are honored to host David Mahler from Environmental Survey Consulting\, an expert in ecological restoration. David was a charter member of the Society for Ecological Restoration and served on the first Board of Directors. He is a current member of both SER and Texas SER and is a Certified Ecological Restoration Practitioner. \nDavid will present on the “Restoration of Grasslands in the Midwest and Texas: Then and Now” including concepts\, projects\, and the hands-on processes of restoration. Restoration was “invented” by Ted Sperry and Aldo Leopold in 1936 at the University of Wisconsin-Madison Arboretum. The first prairie restoration in Texas was started about 50 years ago by Mickey and Bob Burleson on their 500-acre reclaimed cotton field northeast of Temple. Environmental Survey Consulting began their Wild Basin restoration in 1984. Restoration is now a major component of contemporary efforts to save\, protect and manage conservation lands throughout the world. \nWe can’t wait to see you on August 12th at The Tavern from 6:30-8:30 PM!

Wings Over Wimberley or “WOW” as it is affectionately called\, will be a vivacious 3-day event full of music\, art\, food and fun celebrating the thousands of Mexican Free- tailed Bats who call Wimberley home. \nFrom Friday\, September 13 through Sunday\, September 15\, 2019 Wings Over Wimberley will attract visitors from near and far to see\, learn about\, and recognize the important role bats play in the Central Texas ecosystems.
