The Vincennes Civitan Club will present its 2016 Citizen of the Year award to Robert “Angel” Lange at a luncheon on December 15.

Lange will be recognized for his efforts to rehabilitate wildlife while providing valuable education for area children about nature.

Lange has long provided care and a welcoming refuge for injured wild birds and animals. Conservation officers from a wide area of the state, as well as the public, bring a steady flow of injured and sick animals to Lange.

So far this year, he has cared for 127 animals.

The December 15th luncheon will be held in Vincennes University’s Trailblazer Room in Governor’s Hall. Tickets are $10. For more information contact Duane Chattin at dchattin@vinu.edu or by calling 812-888-4164.
