She knew birds, wildflowers, and other things natural and was always eager to learn more. She never complained about anything, even 6-inch deep mud at the Oxbow, flat tires enroute to distant places, long waits for Prairie chicken displays, and midnight returns from bat observations. The Oxford Audubon Society continues to celebrate the contributions of Rosie by naming a yearly camp scholarship in her honor. The National Audubon Society has been conducting educational camps and workshops for more than fifty years. Most are week-long sessions offered during June, July, and August.
Field studies range from animal behavior to glacial geology.
A variety of course work enables participants to choose suitable levels of physical activity. Details of the environmental education and natural history programs for the current year are available from the Education Committee of the Oxford Audubon Society. Each year the Oxford Audubon Society offers the Rosie Bloom Memorial Scholarship to an area educator interested in furthering conservation and environmental education. Transportation, longer stays, and additional fees are the responsibility of the participant. College credit is available for an additional fee and further course work.
