Visit our Programs
Our programs are open to anyone who wants to participate. You don't have to be a member of Audubon or our local chapter to join the fun. But after you have come to several of our programs, we think you'll want to join and support us. :-)

Save the date: Saturday, September 13, 2025
2025 marks the 50th year since the founding of Willapa Hills Audubon in 1975. So, mark your calendars, as we have set aside Saturday, September 13, 2025 as a day of celebration.
We’ll have an afternoon and evening of birding at nearby Julia Butler Hansen Refuge for Columbian White-tailed Deer, a program or two, entertainment from local bird enthusiasts; food, drink and palaver, all at the Skamokawa Paddle Center in downtown Skamokawa.
Stay tuned for more details in the Autumn edition of the Whistler, but in the meantime alert all our old WHAS friends near and far about this event. For more information check out this website in September or contact our president.

Our WHAS picnic is coming up this Saturday, Aug 16, from 2-5 PM at the Turner residence in Rose Valley. Attendees are asked to bring one covered dish (a salad, entree, dessert or snack) to feed 4 to 6 people. Each person should bring their own plates, cups and tableware. Ice, water, iced tea, napkins, paper towels, tables and chairs will be provided. We will have tables, chairs and sun protection.
The Turner residence is about 8 miles up into Rose Valley, elevation 500 feet. To get to the Turner house from Longview take Tennant Way east towards I-5. Stay in the left lane to head towards Seattle & Kelso Drive. Then continue in the left lane (towards Kelso Drive) to the roundabout. Take the first "exit" South (not counting the freeway entrance into the roundabout) on to Highway 99 south. In one mile take a left on Rose Valley Rd. After 5.1 miles on winding Rose Valley Road, turn right [slight uphill right] on South Goble Creek Road and wind your way about a mile until you pass a large white barn on the right; then turn right on very steep Zillig Rd. After 0.4 miles, turn left on Jensen Rd - we'll have a yellow "TURNER" sign on the mailbox. We are the second driveway on the right. There should be quite adequate room to park on the pavement
