Wow! We can’t believe that another summer has finished already.

This year’s Summer Program was once again filled with wonderful friendships, so many opportunities to learn new skills and lots of exploring in the forest and around our unique facility. We had so many imaginative activities put on by our mentors that kept us active, thinking and using our creativity. Our participants also connected deeply with our Therapy Animals, side by side with our Animal Care team.

Our summer was filled with countless successes, which were made possible by the support of our truly incredible staff and students. Thank you so much for your passion, enthusiasm and dedication to making this summer another memorable one!

Thank you so much to our wonderful friends at The Kibble Project for another donation of supplies for our Therapy Animals! You are so understanding of our unique facility and mission, which is truly appreciated. We loved having Gladys here for a visit where we could spend some more time connecting and sharing stories. Thank you for making a difference not only for us but for many animals and organizations!

We are looking forward to continuing this partnership!
