Cincinnati Museum Center Hosts BatFest Saturday (Win Tickets)

Activities, Giveaways | October 24, 2011 by | 57 Comments

CLOSED. Congrats to FFC reader Jacqui Y.

Thanks to all who entered!

 

Did you know nearly 1,000 kinds of bats account for almost a quarter of all mammal species? How about that a single little brown bat can catch 600 mosquitoes in just one hour?

If your child is interested in bats, than these trivia tidbits are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to what they will learn about if your family heads to the Cincinnati Museum Center this weekend for BatFest!

Saturday only, the Cincinnati Museum Center is celebrating all things bats, shining a much needed spotlight on one of the world’s most misunderstood creatures. Kids in attendance will have a chance to interact with real bats, meet with bat conservation organizations, watch flight demonstrations, and more. There’ll also be cavers climbing the Rotunda and special events in the Duke Energy Children’s Museum.

Thanks to the Cincinnati Museum Center, one lucky Family Friendly Cincinnati reader will have a chance to take their children to BatFest, on us!

    I had an attic full. I had to displace them when I created my new master bed and bath. Felt awful. Would like to pay homage to the cousins. Thx

    I would love to win these! I absolutely adore bats, with their cute little faces. The fruit bats at the zoo are my favorite. Bats are the coolest animals, wish I could have a pet one! I have a pet flying squirrel and bats remind me of him. I subscribed to the newsletter and liked you on Facebook. Whether I win or not, I will be at BatFest Saturday. Thanks.
