Holiday Happenings .....




Exciting Adventures
Here’s what’s going on at Rikki’s Refuge and we sure hope to see YOU.

December 17th Saturday - Noon - 2 pm, donation drop off, round up all the canned cat and dog food you can and stop by to drop it off.  Our docent had a job transfer, so I’m so sorry, but she can’t be available on Saturdays to meet and greet and show you around!  The staff can’t neglect their duties - which means feeding ME - so they can just help you with a quick unload.  But come back Sunday for a tour!

Would you like to help the animals, donate a few hours one or more Saturday’s a month, and be a Docent?  I’ll train you!!!  Be my Docent - Vincent@Rikkisrefuge.org


December 18th Sunday - TOUR the Refuge at NOON, gates open at 11:30 am, tour lasts about 2 hours and it’s all outside, so be warm.  Admission cat and dog food - as much as you can carry.  Canned please, Purina is keeping us well stocked in dry right now!!!   Big huge thanks to MIKE WOOD who drive over the river and thru the woods and up and down mountains to bring us food from Purina’s Pennsylvania Packaging Plant.  Without Mike, we’d be hungry.

If we can preserve the photo set we created for Vincent and Timmy's Christmas photos till Christmas Day we'll have a special for you!!!


NO you can't sit on St. Vince's lap and tell him your wishes for Christmas, but he can sit on your lap and you can get your photo taken for a $50 donation and you'll get one 8x10 glossy sent to you!!!!


December 24th Saturday - Noon - 2 pm, donation drop off, please be generous, we eat 30% more food in the winter time!!!   And we count on YOU!!


December 25h Sunday - Enchanted Christmas Tour at NOON, gates open at 11:30 am, tour lasts about 2 hours and it’s all outside, so be warm.  During the tour you’ll get to help decorate our trees with nums and watch us pick our favorite off the trees.  Admission cat and dog food - as much as you can possibly haul in.  Canned please, we’re well stocked on dry.  We need bird seed, oranges, and fresh produce too.

If we can preserve the photo set we created for Vincent and Timmy's Christmas photos till Christmas Day we'll have a special for you!!!

NO you can't sit on St. Vince's lap and tell him your wishes for Christmas, but he can sit on your lap and you can get your photo taken for a $50 donation and you'll get one 8x10 glossy sent to you!!!!

I think I need a new ‘puter, mine seems broken, it says nums not real word !!!!


January 1st Sunday - Opening the New Year at your favorite place will bring you good luck all year!!!   11 am Tour of the Refuge - note 11 am - not our usual noon - 11 am so we can squeeze in Nature Hike before it gets dark and cold.  Gates open at 10:30 am.  Tour at 11 am, yup, it’s all outside so dress warm warm warm.  Then at 1 pm you’ll head for the hills!!!!  Pristine Nature Hike thru the 367 acres of Rikki’s Refuge.  Good boots, waterproof and all dressed up for the weather.  Wear orange and red and bright colors so any evil poaching trespassing you know what’s don’t think you’re a deer!!!

I sure hope to see you this holiday season!  If you can’t make it, know that I’d be at your door step to wish you a wonderful Christmas if only mom would let me have a corporate jet -- but she says all the money has to go to taking care of animals, always!!!
