Butterflies and insects have their skeletons on the outside of their bodies, called the exoskeleton. This protects the insect and keeps water inside their bodies so they don’t dry out.
Yearly Membership Dues Are Due

    It's the first of the year, time for new resolutions and time to renew your SEMBA Membership dues.
    Membership in SEMBA is inexpensive and affordable for a one year membership which includes access to the SEMBA website (which you are currently viewing), all meeting handouts, guest speakers and lecturers, special events and activities, and several editions of Nectar News, SEMBA's official newsletters, when published throughout the year.
    Membership dues are $15 per person.  If more than one family member wants to join, the second family member gets their membership for only $7.50.  This family member discount can be used for up to four family members.
    Membership dues can be paid in person at the next meeting at Nankin Mills. If you are unable to attend the meeting, you can also mail your dues to:
SEMBA
1263 Springer Street
Westland MI. 48186

Make checks payable to SEMBA.
