Build a Bird of Prey

What makes a bird of prey? Let's find out! Build a bird with a raptor toolbox filled with touchable artifacts. Through song and dance, discover how raptors hunt and pack a raptor lunchbox to learn what they eat. Round out this experience by meeting one of our tiny but mighty raptor ambassadors! The Hop is excited to partner with Hanover Parks and Recreation as part of their Picnic in the Park Series. Photographs will be taken at this event. By attending, you agree to be photographed and video recorded. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. vins-hpr-logos.png With thanks to our Season Sponsor – Community Programming: The Jack & Dorothy Byrne Foundation.
