In 2007, the Center's flight conditioning cages were replaced by a permanent flight barn which has 3 standard sized flight cages surrounded by a 12 foot wide "racetrack" that is a continuous flyway, enabling patients to build up stamina prior to release. The building will measure 52 by 64 feet overall when completed.

The original design was obtained from Avian Haven of Maine ( View the flight barn layout).

The interior 3 rooms were completed by January 11, 2007 and put to immediate use. Construction has resumed in the Fall of 2009 to complete the surrounding loop. Below are a series of photos showing the project. We will be adding more as construction continues.
