ROCK VALLEY COLLEGE REHAB
CLASS EDUCATION FOR ALL If anyone knows me they know the importance of education to me and reaching the hearts of all. If you save one animal or bird you have done well, but teach others how to do their part and you have saved many. We do educational programs in Wisconsin and Illinois and have done many this year. I am pleased too say the requests keep coming in. We are now booked two months in advance.

“Hoo” Haven offers
educational presentations with live birds of prey for groups
and organizations. We bring our goodwill
ambassadors, visual aids and interactive displays for a
fascinating and entertaining presentation One of our favorite parts of the program is doing raptor pellets. Watching the reactions at the beginning and then at the end. Oh how they change. Education also goes for Steven and I, so that we may better serve the animals and birds that we care for. We try to go to three classes a year for new updates and information. This year we went to World Bird Sanctuary in St. Louis and learned more about programs, rehabbing and taking care of the raptors we have. It was wonderful. A lot of hands on training and in small groups. We also took a technical class in Milwaukee. We went to the National Wildlife Rehab Seminar in Florida where updates of new medicine and treatments were reviewed. One must forever keep learning and keep an open mind. We always want to do the best we can for all the cares involved. If any school, scout group, businesses, church or any organization would like to find out about the programs they need only to call 629-2212 and leave a good number where they may be reached in the evening for me to call.
Once again we have been
asked to teach the Wildlife Class at Rock Valley College and
Kishwaukee. Steven and I tag team as we always do and the
classes are a lot of fun. All the students would like the
classes longer but for now this is not possible.
