wonderedwhat can I do to protect endangered animals? Join the club,

answers and take ACTION!!! Meet like-minded friends as we
research endangered animals from
each continent! We will also develop a service project to raise
awareness of the plight of native
endangered species. Get up close and personal with some of these
creatures with a hands-on
visit to Fountain Rock Park & Nature Center. Along the way,
we will learn about careers working
with animals as we visit the local wildlife preserve and zoo.

fantastic fiction and share book reviews of our favorite books
on the subject. Make a

What is the need for the program?
The Endangered Animal Club meets the needs of our community in
that it provides a program
for Elementary School age children. The Endangered Animal Club
makes a connection to the
FCPL Mission Statement in that it will provide facilities and an
environment which connects
people to ideas, experiences and information. This club is part
of the SPRING 2013 schedule.
Who are the potential community partners? I feel that building
community partnerships is a winning equationfor all participants. I
am very excited to work with following community partners:
Fountain Rock Park & Nature Center 8511 Nature Center Place
Walkersville, MD 21793
This local park & nature center will provide a hands-on
connection to a native endangered species the box turtle.
Participants
will learn about the plight of the box turtle as well as
developing a service project to help protect this native
species.
Catoctin Wildlife Preserve and Zoo 13019 Catoctin Furnace Road

Participants will have the opportunity to learn about the behind
the scenes activities at this local preserve & zoo. They
wil
also learn about a variety of careers working with animals.
Participants will also have the opportunity to view a variety of
non-
