10 AM -12 PM: Service project (This time can be logged as Service hours)
There are already 15 families registered, and Denise Lewis from Raptor Recovery expects to reach the cut-off of 20 families. The goal is to have one volunteer to help each family, so please RSVP to Dorie Stone (email or phone: 712-310-3571) soon, no later than Wednesday, March 28, so Denise will know if they need more than the 3 FF volunteers already signed up.
During the box-building time, we may be able to take people for hikes. Denise Lewis is also planning on having someone play guitar and a face painter to paint malar stripes on kids (of all ages).
12-1 PM: Live Kestrel Presentation
Linda Dennis will bring in her pair (male and female) of educational kestrels.
