NatureFest

The National Elephant Center joined Waste Management on February 28, 2009 to participate in NatureFest in Fort Pierce, Fla. Elephant Center board member John Lehnhardt and his wife, Kathy, represented the Center along with Waste Management partners Jenny Pung and Jeff Sabin. NatureFest is an annual community event hosted by the Manatee Observation and Education Center. Hundreds of people attended the event showcasing 28 area conservation organizations. The day was a lot of fun, as visitors of all ages stop by to learn about the Elephant Center and discover interesting elephant biofacts.
