Chapter History

El Dorado Audubon began in 1969 as a chapter of the National Audubon Society. Our name is based on El Dorado East Regional Park and Nature Center in Long Beach, California. Construction of El Dorado Park and Nature Center began in about 1968. Our chapter was originally created by a team of advocates for this jewel in Long Beach, California. Today our namesake park and Nature Center has matured into an urban oasis for a host of wildlife and over 200 bird species.
