SUMMARY:The Closing Kettle: Official Celebration of Flight After Party
DESCRIPTION:Overview \nYou came. You saw. You conquered. Or at least you tried your best to figure out what you were looking at high in the sky. But the Celebration (of Flight) isn’t over just yet. \nJoin HawkWatch International\, the Audubon Outdoor Club of Corpus Christi\, the National Wildlife Federation\, and our friends at Lazy Beach Brewing’s Downtown location for The Closing Kettle\, the official closing event of the annual Celebration of Flight festival. Complete with trivia\, a screening of the short film Coast to Coast\, cold craft drinks\, and a chance to see LIVE raptors up close. Plus\, you’ll have a chance to win owlsome prizes. \nREGISTER NOW \nYou do not need to be a raptor expert to participate… but attending the festival isn’t a bad way to brush up on your bird facts. You might just find that it gives you the leg (wing?) up on the competition. \nEach ticket includes: \n\nOne complimentary beer (or other beverage) and a chance to win owlsome trivia prizes\nMeet-and-greet with live raptors from HawkWatch International\nAnd opportunities to learn more about how to see migrating raptors up close\n\nNot interested in playing trivia? You can still stop by to meet the birds and enjoy a beer\, with proceeds benefiting raptor conservation in the Coastal Bend at the Corpus Christi HawkWatch.
