We had a "hoot" at our Summer Solstice Reunion!

A huge thank-you to all who attended our Summer Solstice Reunion last Saturday, June 25th! It was wonderful to see so many familiar faces while enjoying good food and even better conversations.

We had around 55 people join us - wow! We only wish we'd had time to catch up with everyone who attended to share our gratitude for being part of our Piedmont community. We hope everyone had as much fun as we did! Shout out to PWC admin intern Alex and friend Katie for grilling the burgers and hot dogs to perfection.

During the event, we asked people to fill our "memory jar" with their favorite PWC memories. Scroll down to see some of our favorite responses!

Did you take any fabulous photos on Saturday? We'd love to see them! Tag us on Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter - or send them to us directly at admin@piedmontwildlifecenter.org! We also invite you to share your PWC story with us.

Thanks again for joining us this weekend. We hope you stop by for a visit soon… or join us for our next 20th anniversary celebration event!


What's your favorite PWC memory?

  • Visiting Miracle on Saturday mornings :)

  • We got married here! – Dwight and Alyssa

  • We eloped at the amphitheater! – Alyssa and Dwight

  • Parsley (aka Thumper) stomping her feet when I touched her favorite toy. Adorable attitude!

  • My favorite memory of PWC is the old tree swing. The hair-raising jumps, the feeling of weightlessness, the challenges to complete for a push, and adrenaline rush... I miss it a lot. – Nicolas

  • A Walk to Nowhere: I recall being blindfolded and led to a part of the park I had never been to before. The group I was with was then told to find our way back to camp. I enjoyed how well this helped us bond. – Tinder Wolf

  • Seeing Ramzi catch a snake!
