The Northern Owls Opening Day was a great success! I was sure happy to fly by and see all the children enjoying themselves. The Owl Foundation’s zoologist Annick Gionet was wonderful; she brought a very interesting presentation on owls and her foundation http://www.theowlfoundation.ca/. Mark Ricker was another great addition displaying his artistic work involving owls http://www.markricker.com/. There was a ton of giveaways, including Warner Brothers Canada “Legend of the Guardians” movie http://legendoftheguardians.warnerbros.com/ giveaways and Owl magazines http://www.owlkids.com/ for all. The owl cupcakes from Sweetcakes Cupcakery were devoured by all in attendance http://www.sweetcakescupcakes.ca/. Also there were 11 raffle draws held! These included great Owl Magazine gift bags, Warner Brothers Canada supersized posters, and Pen Centre Empire Theaters family movie packs. The guided hike was very interesting; I followed along and found out where the owls like to hide, always helpful when they try to eat me! Back inside the children’s craft area was always packed and I saw many great pictures, masks and owl trees made there. All in all it was an amazing opening day event! There will be more exciting things happening with the exhibit and more draws to be won over Thanksgiving weekend so be sure to come by.
