Blessed Sacrament Vacation Bible School Makes a Generous Contribution;


Last week, our new Native Species Owl Enclosure kicked off its funding with a generous donation from Morton's Blessed Sacrament Vacation Bible School!
Each day the kids brought in a different kind of money. Day one was pennies, day two nickels and so on. Their goal of $300 was reached in half the time and they just kept giving! The final donation amassed a whopping $663.20. Way to go kids! What an awesome job.

Also, an extra-special thanks goes to Christy Metzger who agreed to eat a worm for achieving their goal. Because they doubled that, she had to eat two worms! Oh no! Oh yuck! Way to go Mrs. Metzger! Thanks to everyone for such a phenomenal donation.
