Junior Audubon Club
Junior Audubon Clubs officially began in 1910. The first Junior Audubon Club membership pin was the Mockingbird pin.

(Whitehead & Hoag, 3/4") |
The educational program usually was delivered through the classroom. The focus was on nature study, conservation and how kids could make a difference. Audubon Teachers' Guides, School Nature League Bulletins and Audubon Junior News were publications of the National Audubon Society. Membership was only 10 cents per year for several years.
Interest in the Junior Audubon Clubs decreased greatly by the 1970s. The National Audubon Society launched a new program, Audubon Adventures in 1984 and it continues today.
Pins shown below are divided into 2 groups; those that say Junior Member on them, and those that don't.
