What is Owl Fest?
Owl Fest is two days of owl-themed fun and Eagle Creek Park Foundation’s largest fundraiser! All funds raised will go directly to support the Raptor Ambassadors at the Eagle Creek Park Ornithology Center.
Besides fundraising, there is fun for the whole family! There are guided hikes called “Owl Prowls”, live animal programs, haunted hayrides, shirts, buttons, and more for sale!
In 2024 you can vote to elect your favorite raptor!
