OBFS DISPLAY & BROCHURES


In 1996 funding from NSF allowed OBFS to create a brochure and build a portable, free-standing display booth with text and graphics to explain the importance of biological field stations and marine laboratories to the public. The display is available for OBFS members to borrow for use at professional meetings, open houses, field days, fundraisers, etc. It is about 7'9" tall, 2 feet deep and 8 feet long with its own internal lighting; shipping costs may be reimbursable by OBFS. The text of the display is also available in brochure form. Anyone interested in obtaining brochures or borrowing the display should contact Nina Consolatti, Kellogg Biological Station, 3700 East Gull Lake Drive, Hickory Corners, MI 49060.
