Kentucky Bat Festival

We have decided to table this event for 2026. It requires so many hours of planning and our team is small. Fundraising IS critical to our ability to save animals and this one was tough to justify. We will spend more time in the fall dedicated to our animals. Look for a bat class offered in October at the center though! AND, so many other smaller scale events listed on our home page. We are making our holiday event bigger with multiple days to attend. We are excited about this and all of our v eats so we can visit with you!
