Ohio Bird Sanctuary Gets Land from BSA

September 9, 2007 on 6:34 pm | In Birding Projects |

The Boy Scouts of America is transferring 52 acres of land to the Ohio Bird Sanctuary.  The deal was completed on 9/8/07. For the past 12 years, The Ohio Bird Sanctuary had been leasing the land from the Scouts.  Camp Avery Hand was 256 acres and is now reduced to the remaining 204 acres which will stay under the ownership of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA). The BSA hopes this land transfer will help resolve some of its fiscal issues.
