#Petaluma, Wet Your Whistle For The Wetlands

The Shollenberger Shindig is Tuesday evening February 3 starting at 5:30PM at Lagunitas Beer Sanctuary.

This is a special benefit for Friends of Shollenberger and General Admission is only $25. You get great music, artisan beer tasting, light supper gratis, and a silent auction with art and wine. Also while enjoying yourself you also get the satisfaction knowing your donation is going to a good cause. Click here to get tickets online.

In August 2014 we did a short story and video on the rescue of a rare aquatic bird found at Shollenberger. For no apparent reason this post went viral over the last week and was viewed by thousands with most referrals coming from facebook.

Click here if you want to see the photo of the rare baby Black Rail bird and a short video of the International Bird Rescue feeding the tiny-black puff-ball chick.
