The Wyncote Audubon Society is one of the oldest nature oriented clubs in North America. We were founded in 1914 as the Wyncote Bird Club and in 1970 we became a chapter of the National Audubon Society. We now have over 2000 members in the Philadelphia / Eastern Montgomery County region.

As a member of National Audubon we firmly support the Audubon Cause :

To conserve and support systems of the natural environment

To conserve and use renewable energy sources

To protect life from radiation and toxic substances and pollution

To promote the responsible use of public lands and waters

To work to solve local and global environmental problems

To address the stablization of World Populations

WAS President Resigns

We are sad to report that President Rick White has
reluctantly turned in his resignation to the board.
Citing personal reasons, Rick feels he cannot at this time
fulfill his obligations to Wyncote Audubon.
While we are very sorry to lose Rick we understand
that this has been a very hard year for him. We wish him
all the best and look forward to his return.
In the interim, Jane Henderson will take over the position of President.

On the local level, Wyncote is involved in numerous educational projects. We maintain Crosswicks, a National Audubon Society Sanctuary in Abington Twp., Montgomery Co. PA. and support the Militia Hill Hawk Watch
The Board also occasionally awards the Edward Hicks Parry Award honoring those who have offered distinguished service to Wyncote Audubon.
