WCA's Wildlife Baby Shower 2026

Join us for food, facility tours, kids' activities, and much more to help prepare us for 2026's Wildlife Baby Season! Fun for all ages.

The Wildlife Care Association (WCA) invites the public to get a special behind the scenes look at our facility and grounds, before the busiest part of our year begins!

This fundraising event is fun for all ages and is geared toward engaging the community in WCA's mission to rescue, rehabilitate and release local wildlife. We kindly ask attendees to donate items to help prepare us for a successful baby season, or to provide a monetary donation to assist in our organization's annual operating costs. Guests can anticipate a guided tour, children's activities, merchandise sales, a meet-and-greet with an education raptor, street tacos (with vegetarian options), and more!

WCA took in over 9,000 patients in 2025, with numbers expected to increase in 2026. Wildlife come to our center in every physical state, from perfectly healthy orphans to severely injured adults needing months of extensive care. We rely heavily on volunteers and interns each year, as well as donations from the public to support our mission.
