Busy Day at Festival of Wings

What a fantastic day for FESTIVAL OF WINGS!

About 200 visitors came to Grove Park on Saturday, May 14. There was an unofficial traffic count of 200, and we are thrilled that so many members stepped up to help! Special thanks to our Program Chair, Genell Harris, who has worked tirelessly. This was a joint event with HSV Audubon and POA Parks and Recreation.

  • Popular displays: live critters Parks & Wildlife, native plants Vaughan nursery; Membership was busy! POA Lakes had an outstanding display.

  • A total of $801.30 was donated by artist, Mary Heflin, to Raptor Rehab from the merchandise on her jewelry table. Rodney and his raptors were thrilled!

  • Nancy Uggla sold all but 2 of her photos, and got orders for more.

  • We had free promo from Clampit's on KVRE, FB and in-store; True Value in-store and Facebook.

POA Parks and Recreation is already talking about wanting to do it again next year.

Not everything was about “wings” as you can see from this popular little guy.
