Throw on your labcoat and get ready to experience forces and reactions through several exciting, hands-on experiments that will have the audience laughing, learning and having fun! Enjoy this spectacular adventure and be swept away to a place where truly 'super' heroes really do exist!

Annie Mardiney and
her Super Raptors

Annie Mardiney will bring her hawks and owls and teach us about these super birds. Annie is a state-certified wildlife rehabilitator. She holds a federal migratory bird license from the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and works with Ulster County SPCA, Ravensbeard Wildlife Center and Forsyth Nature Center. She turns practically no one away, taking in nearly all birds. "This work is one of the most satisfying and intriguing things I've done in my life," Mardiney said. "I love it. It's amazing to raise an ugly, naked teeny tiny bird to a beautiful adult. It's wonderful to set birds free. I am amazed at their determination to live, even with the most severely injured animals. It's truly astounding."

Wayfinder Experience

July 20, 3:00-5:00
Ages 8 and up

The evolving complexity of our games will force them to build both leadership and team-building skills. "Find the Hero Inside"
