TWILIGHT TOUR
June 7, 2025
6pm - 8pm, at FCFS
The FCFS team is privileged to witness the beauty of the sanctuary at twilight. This is when the cows come out of the woods for dinner, and when the sun is setting across the breathtaking landscape of the 55 acre property, giving an incredible glow as it illuminates the sky and tree line.
The twilight hours at the sanctuary are some of the most beautiful and peaceful. With the sanctuary surrounded by the F.D. Roosevelt State Park, the view and sounds from the wrap around porch of the lodge is truly a magnificent experience. Though the cow pasture is impressive on its own, when the colors of the sunset dance across the sky giving a gorgeous hue to all it touches, it is a special sight to behold.
​
Twilight at the sanctuary is a time of feeding, calm, and a time when the residents are enjoying the long cooler hours of the evening, doing the things that make them happy. We welcome you to participate in this event to experience the sanctuary as few do.
