Baby Shower at our Annual Mother’s Day Open House
At our annual Mother’s Day Open House on May 12 from 11am to 2pm we will be hosting a Baby Shower. After all, it is baby season at the RMRP. Bring a donation of an item from our wish list, or monetary donations are also needed, to help the orphans in our care. Sometimes the joy in gift giving is in the shopping. It is a thrill to search and find that perfect gift for that someone special. Well raptors like gifts too. Below you will find the items that we need to care for raptors on a daily basis. Every little bit helps us to achieve our mission; inspiring the appreciation of raptors and the spaces where they live through excellence in raptor rehabilitation, education and research.
