ARC's Annual Events

---

Is held in February, in honor of Valentines day, and our Valentines Owl, Henry! Barn owls are sometimes called the Valentines Owl because of their unique heart-shaped face, and our barn owls will be out and about to celebrate! We also have a bake sale with lots of sweets handmade by our wonderful volunteers. Have the kids come and make a valentine card.

Our spring fundraiser, with a rennaisance theme. We have teamed up The Society for Creative Anachronism and will have medieval activities, children's games, and demonstration by our falconers. Dress up or come as you are!

Come celebrate the return of the Swallow-Tailed Kite to Florida! These magnificent birds migrate 5,000 miles each year to winter in Brazil and return to Florida in the spring. Come out and fly a kite with us, and you might spy a different kind of kite flying high above!

Is June 20th, and celebrated by ARC on the closest Saturday. This celebrates the recovery of the American bald eagle. Come on out! We have kids activities, frozen lemonade, watermelon, and you can have a photo taken with our resident bald eagles!

Our largest event, and draws many visitors each year. We have face painting, flight demonstrations, live music, a raffle, food trucks, and lots of local vendors from the area. We have many children's activities include a hooting contest. Of course our education birds are out and about as well, with plenty of opportunities to learn about our raptors, and to take a picture or two!
