Everyone welcome for the presentation; please register whether you will be building or not.

In this workshop, you’ll get a chance to learn many fun facts about bats, why they are so important to humans, Alberta bat conservation work, and how you can help!

The workshop will include both a presentation and, if you like, building a bat house for you and/or your family to take home. For this workshop you need to bring (if you have one, but we can share and there will bring extras!!):
