Organization of Biological Field Stations Annual Meeting at Schoodic Institute
Save the Date!
We look forward to hosting the 2026 Organization of Biological Field Stations (OBFS) Annual Meeting on September 14-18 at Schoodic Institute in Winter Harbor, Maine.
Acadia National Park is especially beautiful in September, making the Annual Meeting a perfect time to connect, refresh, and renew our commitment to sharing and growing.
Many thanks to OBFS for the opportunity to host this year’s Annual Meeting.
Stay tuned for more information, coming this spring.
Founded in 2004, Schoodic Institute is located in the homeland of the Wabanaki, People of the Dawn. A nonprofit partner in science and education, we work with Acadia National Park to manage the largest of 17 National Park Service Research Learning Centers.
