Programs at your site
 
Interested in an assembly program that will keep your students on the edges of their seats, or a unique presentation for your club or community group? An outreach program from The Raptor Center is your answer. Invite the raptors to your school or event! TRC raptors and staff travel around Minnesota and the United States, providing a unique educational experience. Our hour-long programs are packed with age-appropriate information that is both educational and entertaining. All outreach programs include a raptor education specialist, at least three live raptors, and a variety of hands-on props and activities that make this program a complete educational experience. Our staff and raptors are also available for booth-style meet-and-greet events. Outreach programs are available seven days a week, and our staff travels nationwide. Fees for outreach programs - Three raptors, such as a owl, hawk, and falcon (not including an eagle): $275
- Four raptors, including a bald eagle: $375
- Each additional consecutive program on the same day at the same site: $100 each (up to four programs)
Additional charges will be applied if the program location is more than 50 miles from The Raptor Center. For more information, call 612-624-2756. Scheduling an outreach program

The Raptor Center charges a $55 fee for programs canceled less than two weeks before the date of the program. Two tips to avoid cancellation and rescheduling: - Check to make sure your program location is available before you schedule your program.
- If you're planning a program with another group, confirm that they have cleared their schedule as well.
