Folks:
Please see the attached mini-grant application and two attached photos. I propose to provide to COA at its upcoming 2026 Annual Meeting twenty (20) fully constructed bluebird nest boxes to be given away free to annual meeting attendees. The mini-grant request in the amount of $300 will pay the cost of time and materials to construct and deliver the nestboxes, as detailed in the attached application. The goal of this project is to increase the number of people actively engaged in bluebird conservation and to increase the number of bluebird nest boxes in use in Connecticut.
Thank you in advance for your consideration of this request. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or comments.
Tom Baptist
