Sanctuary Calendar

This is a loose schedule of our upcoming projects. This schedule may fluctuate unexpectedly if we have a rescue to do. It is also based on best possible weather conditions. Sometimes we get ahead of schedule sometimes behind... but our website is continually being updated, so you are looking at our current best guess.

These larger tasks are in addition to the normal day-to-day activities which include pitching hay, cleaning & filling water buckets, filling feeders with appropriate rations, etc.

Weather permitting, onsite volunteer opportunities usually take place on Saturdays between 11:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m. and on Sundays 12:00 – 4:00 p.m.

We ask that our Onsite Volunteers each show up for at least 4 hours of service on any given day. Onsite Volunteers need to commit to volunteering on a consistent basis at least four times a year.

Saturdays & Sundays January - February:

Weekends are spent changing out heated water buckets, cleaning the hay in barns and houses.

Immediately after snow storms we shovel paths for the ducks and geese to walk on and sand those paths.

Volunteers should be prepared to do any of these tasks.

Returning Onsite Volunteers  

Please review the calendar above and then Email us with the date and time you would like to come join us again. Please remember to include your full name and phone number in the email. Our Volunteer Coordinator will confirm your appointment within 24 hours of receiving your email.

Thank you and we look forward to seeing you again!

Food & Drink:

We provide plenty of Coke, Lemonade and water to our volunteers to ensure everyone is fully hydrated. Most volunteers will need to bring their own lunch and/or snacks.

For those Saturday volunteers who put in a full 6-7 hour workday, we will provide one meal. We will either order pizza & grinders for a late afternoon lunch or we will drive you into town and treat you to an all you can eat dinner that has never gone wrong!
