For Children
Shelter Tours
Guided tours of both Bucks County SPCA animal care facilities are available for interested groups of all ages. Tours run 45 minutes to an hour long, including time for questions. In addition to touring the different animal areas, attendees learn about our organization and the animals we help. Review the guidelines below and contact us at outreach@bcspca.org to schedule tour. If your group has a specific topic that they want to learn about, please be sure to let us know.
Group Size:
- Space at our Lahaska facility is limited. We can accommodate groups of 10 – 12 maximum, including kids and adults. Multiple tour times can be scheduled for larger groups.
- We can accommodate larger groups at our Quakertown shelter.
Tour Times:
- Tuesdays through Fridays between 12:00 PM and 5:00 PM
- Please allow a few weeks’ advanced notice since our schedule fills up quickly
Please also understand that we cannot guarantee direct interaction with animals during tours.
Classroom Presentations and School Assemblies
The Bucks County SPCA is happy to visit your classroom or school assembly to introduce participants to our work. This program will offer a glimpse into the life of animals at our shelters, from sign in to adoption. It is a great way to introduce kids and adults to the scope of our work on behalf of animals in our community and to learn how attendees can support our efforts.
