• Education of the public about raptors and preservation of their habitat; and,
• Endeavoring to increase the wild population of endangered and threatened raptors.

The date for the session will be Saturday, May 10, 2014. The Conservancy will be obtaining permits for a local park in Virginia. Exact location is yet to be determined; it will be within a 30-minute drive of DC.
