Raptors are Coming to the Murray County Fair!

What is a raptor?  Eagles, hawks, falcons, owls, kestrels and more….

The University of Minnesota Raptor Center will have two opportunities on Thursday, August 17th for you to visit with feathered friends and learn about why they are so important in our environment.   Participants can ask questions, take photos or just relax and watch the raptors.   There will be two programs starting at 2:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. with some extra time available for question and answers after each show.

The public is invited to come and admire these magnificent birds for free under the center tent.   This event is sponsored by the Murray County Central FFA and Slayton Building Materials.
