Spring Camps for 2009

If you have a child aged 5-12, these camps during spring intersession and school holidays are just for you! Most sessions are one-week long day camps with a one-day camp on January 19th. All camps are held at our easy-to-reach Leigh Farm Park location. The camps are taught by our popular summer camp staff, Sarah Haggerty and gumby Montgomery, along with other educators during busy camp weeks.

Baby slider We have found a new way for you to support wildlife by helping Piedmont Wildlife Center raise money for wildlife by creating your own fund raising page at Firstgiving, an online fund raising site we are using to raise money. Will you help us?

The Piedmont Wildlife Center needs volunteers year-round, 365 days a year, at the wildlife hospital in Durham. As the baby season approaches in March, we will extend our hours to receive animals and handle the needs of the wildlife orphans. There are additional opportunities through our Volunteer Support Taskforce and Administrative Office. Please join us by signing up for one of our upcoming volunteer trainings (read more).

Each month, the hospital staff picks a patient to feature on the website! You can read a blurb about its background as well as pictures of the animal! CLICK HERE to read about this month's case of the month as well as those patients which came before it!

August 2008 is 08-1174, an American Oystercatcher.
