Ohio Wildlife Center Wish List

Dear Families,

The Ohio Wildlife Center (OWC) will be visiting the 3rd grade for our Valentine’s Day Party on February 14,  2012. The OWC does not charge us to bring the many wonderful indigenous animals they rescue and rehabilitate (snapping turtles, owls, opossums, etc.). Instead they ask us to make a collective donation of items.

Please begin collecting any donation items you see below on the OWC’s wish list below and plan to deliver them to school on February 14th. (We do not have room at school to store wish list items.) Your donations will help to maintain the wonderful reciprocal relationship we have the OWC.

Thank you,

Mr. Hudson, Mrs. Adams, Mrs. Meyer
