🦜💙 A HUGE thank you to our wonderful community partners at Bird Kingdom in Niagara Falls for not only opening their doors to Autism Ontario and our families once, but twice this summer!

Autistic individuals and their families had the opportunity to explore the world’s largest free-flying indoor aviary and enjoy a wonderful, more relaxed experience together. 🐦🌿

Bird Kingdom went above and beyond to make the experience as smooth and welcoming as possible. Families were provided with a dedicated Autism Ontario check-in table located to the side of the main entrance, making arrival easy and seamless.

Together, Autism Ontario and Bird Kingdom also selected a quieter time during the week and first thing in the morning, allowing families to enjoy the aviary in a calmer, less busy environment. 💙

Thank you, Bird Kingdom, for continuing to be such a cherished community partner and for helping us create inclusive experiences for autistic individuals and their families.

And, of course, a big thank you to all of our wonderful families who joined us! We hope you had a tweet-worthy time! 🐦😊

Thank you to Delta Bingo Sponsors Association of St. Catharines for your continued generosity and supports of our programs and events for the autistic community!
