Atlas-3 2024 Kick-off – April 20th & 21st!
April 20 @ 9:30 am - April 21 @ 12:30 pm
Interested in Birds?
Help us kick off the start of year four of Atlas-3 this April, at our in-person kick-off event weekend! The event will focus on an introduction to Atlas-3 and how to best get involved. It is also a great way to meet fellow Atlassers, get hands-on training from experts, and ask questions in person to better prepare yourself for the upcoming season. Experience is not required, enthusiasm is!
