Tours of the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter Do you have a small group that wants to learn more about animal welfare? Come learn about the role our local animal shelter plays in helping the homeless animals of Monroe County. Join the MCHA Education staff for a tour of the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter. Tours may be scheduled during normal shelter operating hours:Monday/ Wednesday/ Thursday/Saturday
12 - 5:00p.m.
Your group will receive an age-appropriate presentation about animal welfare issues facing our community, followed by a tour of the adoption center to view the animals currently looking for new homes. Specific subject matter is flexible to suit your needs, but all presentations will address pet overpopulation and responsible pet care. All tours will meet at least one MCHA "Animal Ambassador" up close and personal and may have limited hands-on interaction with appropriate shelter animals. Tours are available for grades K – 12 through the MCHA* and the maximum group size per tour is 12 individuals. Groups of up to 25 people may be accommodated by having half the group tour the shelter while the other half receives a presentation and vice versa. One adult chaperone is required for every 5 children. A $3 per person donation to the MCHA is requested for shelter tours with funds raised going toward direct animal care and our education program. Alternately, your group can gather supplies from the Shelter Wish List in lieu of a monetary donation. Please contact MCHA Education Program Director Sarah DeLone at 812.335.9453 or to schedule your shelter tour today. *Tours for adults 18+ will be accommodated by Dr. Jo Liska at the City of Bloomington Animal Shelter. Please contact Jo directly to schedule tours for adult groups at or 812.349.3873. |
