The Parrot Club of Southwestern Ontario hosts the 7th annual Spring Fling `08, an event focusing on educating and promoting responsible bird ownership, on Saturday, May 3, 2008, at Conestoga College Residence & Conference Centre in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada. The doors open at 9:30 a.m.
Educational discussions from bird experts include bird health and best husbandry practices, developing a bond with your bird through trick training, and bird diet and nutrition, as well as a Q & A panel discussion to answer audience questions regarding bird ownership and care. Others events scheduled include the “Parade of Parrots,” raffles and booths with bird-related product vendors.
“Everyone has questions (on bird ownership), this is the place to ask and have them answered,” said Robert Ross, president of the Cambridge Chapter of the Parrot Club of Southwestern Ontario.
Tickets for Spring Fling `08 are $20 and includes lunch. They are available at the door or by e-mail. For more ticket information contact 519-240-8440 or to send an e-mail, click here.
