A Night for Wildlife

A Night For Wildlife
Fundraising for wildlife rescue, rehabilitation and education
Join us for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate 47 years of wildlife rescue, rehabilitation, and education at the Northwoods Wildlife Center’s “A Night for Wildlife” fundraiser dinner. This special event promises an evening filled with delicious food, live music, learn about the wildlife we have helped, and a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with some of our resident education animals.
Guests at “A Night for Wildlife” will enjoy a delightful buffet dinner, offering a variety of options to suit every taste, all in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. As you dine, you’ll have the chance to mingle with fellow wildlife enthusiasts, dedicated staff, volunteers, and board members. The evening will also feature a live auction, where attendees can bid on exclusive items and experiences, with all proceeds directly supporting the vital work of the Northwoods Wildlife Center.
In addition to the auction, attendees will have the chance to engage with our beloved resident education animals, learning about their stories and the important role they play in our educational programs. Live music will provide the perfect backdrop for a night of celebration, camaraderie, and a shared commitment to wildlife conservation.
Our 47th anniversary is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of, and we’re excited to celebrate it with our community. This event is not only a chance to reflect on our history and achievements but also an opportunity to rally support for the future of wildlife rescue and education in our region.
Tickets are available now at an early bird rate of $50 per person until October 10. After October 10, tickets will be $75 per person. Space is limited, so we encourage everyone to register early to secure their spot at this remarkable event.
