• Learn something new from real animal experts including veterinarians, veterinary nurses as well as animal cruelty investigators and animal rescue techs as well as wildlife specialists.
• Play indoor and outdoor games like Giant Jenga and Corn Hole or Arena Volleyball.
• Make some cool crafts and treats for themselves and pets in need.
• Multiple interactions with adoptable pets each day.

Humane education is the teaching of respect, kindness and compassion in relation to animal welfare, social justice and environmental issues. It can bring forth the desire and capability to live with compassion, integrity and wisdom, and can give the knowledge and skills to take action in meaningful ways that allow humans to live in a kinder world.

It also teaches people how to properly care for and respect their companion animals, such as cats and dogs, and all forms of animal life. It can be used as a tool to explain the consequences of irresponsible behavior and motivate people to see the importance of living creatures other than ourselves.
