August Open House Tours

A rare opportunity to see the inner workings of one of the nation's premier wildlife hospitals and education ambassadors! About this Event Several times per year, the Wildlife Center opens its doors to give the public an up-close view of our work, as well as to meet some of the wildlife that serve as the Center’s education ambassadors. As a wildlife emergency room and hospital, the Wildlife Center is not open to the public. These seasonal open house events are times when visitors may tour our Waynesboro facility. Each open house includes an introduction to the Center in our outdoor pavilion, a walk through the hospital, and a tour of our ambassador enclosures. You’ll meet some of the Center’s education animals—the non-releasable animals that are permanent residents here, including Buddy (a Bald Eagle), Athena (a Barred Owl), and Maggie (a Peregrine Falcon). Patients and patient enclosures will not be seen during the open houses. There is no charge, but reservations are required—and we generally fill up quickly. A limited number of spaces are available for each session. Please note that weekend tours tend to fill up quicker than weekdays. Also check out other in Waynesboro, Nonprofit events in Waynesboro.
