Whew! It Has Been a Busy Year at the Colorado River Refuge

Submitted by carrie on Mon, 01/16/2012 - 10:45

If you have not visited the Colorado River Refuge in a while, or if you have never visited, now is a great time to check out the Refuge. Thanks to the Friends of the Colorado River Refuge, the Lost Pines Master Naturalists, the Bastrop chapter of the Texas Outdoors Women’s Network (TOWN), various scout groups and other caring volunteers, the Refuge is looking great! All the trails along the river are open and easy to walk along – even in sandals or pushing a stroller!

The Speaker

Being one of many orphaned animals that have spent the first part of their lives at Wildlife Rescue, Inc. in Austin, I have come to realize just how lucky we are that there are so many people out there making sure we are taken care of. When people find us, they take us right away to the rescue center where we can be cared for properly and to eventually find a new home.
