About
Join us on Saturday morning November 21, as Lisa Thomison, co-founder of Owl Ridge Raptor Center, and their staff provide an introduction to the work of this federal and state licensed raptor rehabilitation center. Owl Ridge will bring some very special winged "ambassadors" for us to meet. Owl Ridge Raptor Center is a nonprofit organization that takes care of injured and orphaned birds of prey. These include owls, hawks, falcons, vultures, and eagles. The goal with each bird is full recovery and re-release back into their native habitat whenever possible. The program is free, but registration is required to confirm your seat. We will have a donation box available to benefit the work at Owl Ridge Raptor Center. Please make sure to register for all members of your group so that seats will be available. Seating limited to 100. The event will be held indoors from 10am -Noon at our Auditorium. UT Arboretum, 901 S. Illinois Avenue, Oak Ridge, TN 37830. * Parking is available at the auditorium.
This event is co-sponsored by the UT Arboretum Society, Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning, and The American Museum of Science and Energy.
*GPS sometimes directs people to a service entrance on Union Valley Road. Do not go to Union Valley Road, our main entrance is on S. Illinois Avenue.
