| How
to Make Trip Reservations: |
| (R)
This symbol means advance reservations are necessary.
If there is no symbol by the trip name, reservations are unnecessary.
(Trips marked with tba are still tentative; watch for more information
on them.) Any trip listed on this page
may be signed up for in advance; in fact, it is preferable not
to wait until the last minute to sign up for the trips. |
| |
| To
make trip reservations, use
the directions listed below. If
there is a trip fee, make check payable to: SEA & SAGE AUDUBON,
and mail all trip reservations to: Nancy Kenyon,
32 Almond Tree Ln, Irvine CA 92612. Be sure to indicate
the name & date of the trip; PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR PHONE NUMBER
for last minute trip updates as well as your e-mail address
so that trip information & confirmation can be sent back
to you. (Be sure your email address is legible!) |
| |
| All
trip participants will be required to sign a trip waiver
(releasing Sea & Sage from liability) before the trip.
A copy of the waiver can be found by clicking here. |
| |
| Trips
Requiring Advance Reservations: |

person in charge of the particular CBC you have signed up for.
Full info on these counts and how to sign up for them can be
found on this website. Click here
