These programs typically begin with a Power Point presentation. Please let us know if Power Point is appropriate for your group and if you provide the laptop and projector.
We are committed to bringing quality educational programs to our communities. Please let us know if you would like us to build a program around another topic or group; with enough notice, we’d be happy to do so.
Programs of 30-45 minutes consisting of 50 or fewer audience members are $75 for approximately 30-45 minutes. Programs with audiences of greater than 50 participants are $100. There is an additional $25 fee for programs after 5 p.m. and an additional $25 fee for programs outside of Colorado Springs. Please write or e-mail us for details on where we are able to conduct programs. Please remember that audiences must remain seated and quiet or the birds cannot come out.
Remember the EWRC Scholarship Program. If your organization budget doesn’t accommodate programs, please send us a letter via e-mail or snail mail detailing a range of dates and the type of program you’re interested in, along with your request for the Scholarship Program.

Although we do our best to bring the bird you request, we make no guarantees, due to time of year and disposition of the birds.
