Biggest Week in American Birding
​2020 Refund Policy

CORONAVIRUS /
​COVID-19 UPDATE

In light of the COVID-19 situation we have waived the standard $25 administrative refund fee.
At present, we are planning to hold the Biggest Week, as planned. As this is clearly a developing situation, we will continue monitoring federal and regional warnings and make decisions based on the most recent information. We will make a final decision no later than April 10 to allow registrants to adjust travel plans. We will communicate openly and transparently with registrants and the public through the Biggest Week website, via email messages, and on social media.
​

Human health and safety is our number one priority. We are closely monitoring this situation and should the festival take place, we will, as always, do everything in our power to ensure the safety of all of our speakers, attendees, volunteers, and staff.

Sincerely,
Black Swamp Bird Observatory Board and Staff
