Spaghetti Feed, April 26

Thank You!

Our most sincere gratitude to everyone! Over 200 people showed up to support birds of prey, take part in the silent auctions, and dine on spaghetti. Thank you to all who attended and contributed to our largest fundraising event of the year.

Our mission is to conserve and protect native birds of prey and their natural habitats through education, rehabilitation, and research.
