Enjoy a BBQ meal with all the trimmings while you meet local rescued wild animals at the Wildlife Education and Rehabilitation Center’s 21st annual Wildlife Feast Oct. 15.
The fundraiser takes place 12 to 3 p.m. at the Morgan Hill Buddhist Community Center, 16450 Murphy Ave. In addition to the food, there will be a live and silent auction for unique items, raptor handling lessons, guided bird walks, original artwork and more. There will also be fun activities for kids.
Barnadette, WERC’s educational barn owl, and other rescued animals will make an appearance.
Advance ticket purchase is required, and the deadline to purchase is Oct. 12. Tickets cost $45 for adults, and $10 for children age 5-12. Children age 5 and younger can get in for free.
WERC is a Morgan Hill nonprofit that takes in orphaned, injured or abandoned wildlife—including birds and mammals—and helps them rehabilitate so they can return to their natural habitat. They also focus on educating the public about local and regional wildlife.
Tickets for the Oct. 15 BBQ can be purchased at the Morgan Hill Chamber of Commerce, the Gilroy Chamber of Commerce or BookSmart in Morgan Hill.
