Orangutan Foundation International representatives Barbara Shaw and Bonnie Hall just returned from Tanjung Puting National Park in Indonesian Borneo - one of the last remaining strongholds of wild orangutans - where they lent support to Dr. Birute' Galdikas and her Orangutan Research and Conservation Project. For more than two decades now, Dr. Galdikas has been researching wild orangutans and reintroducing "ex-captive" orangutans into the jungle. She has won numerous awards for her work, most recently Sierra Club's Chico Mendez Award and the United Nations Global 500 Award. Barb and Bonnie will talk and show slides depicting the past, present and future of this vital project. When: Thursday, December 8th, 1994, 7:30 pm. Where: Changes in Latitude, 2416 Arapahoe, located on the west end of Arapahoe Village Shopping Center. From Denver take Hwy. 36 (Boulder Turnpike) into Boulder. It becomes 28th St. and turn left on Arapahoe just past the Clarion Hotel and Safeway. Then left at the next light into Arapahoe Village Shopping Center. Cost: Free - any donations will go to pay off the motor for a zodiac boat that Bonnie and Barb delivered to Dr. Galdikas in Indonesia this past Sept. and for medical supplies for orphaned, ex-captive orangutans. Contact: Barbara Shaw - 837-0860 or Bonnie Hall 443-8322
