Our Current Projects
Nature Center Now Open Regularly
Turtle Rescue Center & Nature Center Expansion
updated 20 April 2021
updated 20 April 2021
Thanks to wonderful support from our community and beyond, we have big advancements coming this summer! We have a new building (although it needs some work) for our Nature Center, thus freeing up our current space to expand our Reptile Rescue and Turtle Hospital. We were able to secure a lot (with an hold house that will be taken down) for future housing for interns, researchers and graduate students. Finally, we were able to secure a small plot of green space, which will be perfect for our tortoises to stretch their legs and our visitors to play.
To help us make this all possible, please visit our DONATION page to donate via PayPal or a check.

PAST SUCCESSES
All-Inclusion Playset
posted 09 November 2018
Thanks to our amazing donors, we were able to make massive improvements to the Doc Smith Park play area this summer. We did what we could to redirect the water, added mulch, repaired the existing play climber and added several pieces of equipment. When the snow melts in the spring, we will add an additional piece of equipment and some more mulch.
THANK YOU to all of our donors!
