All ages, but aimed at elementary age children
*Everyone attending must register, including adults*

Using the power of live Ohio hawks, owls, falcons and vultures, this program brings students into the lives of raptors. Students learn the natural history of these birds and their survival stories. Students connect with conservation issues and become empowered to take action and give back through personal stewardship.

Children are welcome to pick up a grab-n-go lunch after the program (available from 11:30-12:30).
