Ron Mills Youth Camp Scholarship Fund

In memory of PRAS president, Ron Mills, (1950-2021) the PRAS board has decided to set up a scholarship fund for children to attend summer camp at the Charlotte Harbor Environmental Center. Ron loved to share his passion for the natural world with others, especially children. Ron served on the board of the Early Learning Coalition of Florida Heartland, and has led guided hikes for PRAS that amazed adults and children alike with his ability to call in birds, especially Barred Owls.

 

 

 

 

Bird Blind Fund – Online Donation

CHEC BIRD BLIND OBSERVATION SIGN L.B.

PRAS is working with Charlotte  Harbor Environmental Center to refurbish and maintain the bird blind at CHEC’s Alligator Creek. We have most everything done that we could accomplish with muscle power… and now need funding to fully reach our goals. Donations made through this website will be used to improve both the outside and inside of the blind.  Our list of goals include adding a perimeter of attractive native plants (outside) and installing educational displays (inside). Also if you visit CHEC, we are accepting donations of bird seed and squirrel-proof feeders at the office.
