Grand Haven, Michigan

This month is a good time to spring into action with outdoor activities such as hikes; sports and games; cleaning up litter along ponds, parks, or roadsides; or planting trees for improved habitat. Make plaster casts of the animal tracks you find on your hike. Visit and talk with someone who works with wildlife conservation and visit a fish hatchery, zoo, animal shelter, or wildlife sanctuary. As part of your Good Turn for America, take along food and supplies that they might need. Build birdhouses, birdbaths, feeding stations, or boxes for nesting materials. Do a community service project with your chartered organization to show your positive attitude in doing your best. This would be a good month to work on the Wildlife Conservation belt loop and pin.
