THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED!

This is what the event owner said:

Fontenelle Forest will be closed to the public starting on Monday, March 16th, through March 31. All programs and events are canceled. This decision was made following yesterday’s press conference with local government and health agencies, where Governor Pete Ricketts announced that a first community-acquired case of COVID-19 had been established and recommendations were made to limit large public events, programs and gatherings. If you or your organization were registered for a program or event, we will contact you directly and provide a refund.

Eagle Day!

Nonprofit Events

What’s Happening?
Enjoy eagle-themed crafts and snacks. An educational eagle will be in the Nature Center for visitors to meet and photograph.

Join us for a viewing of FRAGMENTS – a short film about the dangers of lead poisoning in eagles created by Alex Wiles in partnership with Audubon Society of Omaha.

In recent decades, wildlife specialists in North America have noticed a troubling pattern emerging. Bald eagles, California condors, and many other species of wildlife are increasingly succumbing to lead poisoning from an unintentional source — lead ammunition. Fragments was created in the hope of sparking productive dialogue and fostering awareness in how we are impacting our natural spaces. Please join us for a viewing of this powerful film and learn how you can help share the message about the dangers of lead poisoning in eagles.

Please note: Registration is required for the viewing of FRAGMENTS, as maximum occupancy is 175 individuals.

This event is $5 for members and $16 for non-members (daily admission included in price). Members must sign in to receive discount.
