Horizon Wings Earth Day Fair

Horizon Wings is happy to announce our 3rd annual Earth Day Fair to be held on Saturday April 28th, from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. Admission is a donation of $7.00 for adults, $5.00 for children, and free to children under 5 years old.

This year’s event will feature the following:

  • 11:00am – 11:45am, a formal program featuring four of our program birds.
  • 1:00pm - 1:30pm, a special story-telling featuring our Great Horned Owl, Oscar.
  • Tours of our aviaries. We currently have 11 different species of raptors at our facility: American Kestrels, Peregrine Falcon, Eastern Screech Owls, Barred Owl, Barn Owl, Great Horned Owl, Red Tailed Hawk, Broad Winged Hawk, Crow, Raven, Bald Eagle.
  • Throughout the day, we will have some of our raptors out on glove with our volunteers so you can see them up close. This will be a great opportunity to learn more about these spectacular birds and for photographs.
  • Live llama from 1:30 – 2:30.
  • Face painting.
  • Nature-related Arts and Crafts activity.
  • Refreshments.
  • Raffles.

Last year’s event was a huge success — we had an incredible turnout, and the weather was spectacular. We hope that all of you will join us again, and we hope to see many new faces. This is a great opportunity for the whole family to reconnect with nature and enjoy some of its most incredible creatures.
