Tails and Tales (themed summer reading program) would not be complete without real live animals! Want to meet some of these amazing animals? Perhaps get up close and personal with a dog, cow, rabbit, pig, chicken or llama? CCE Albany County is collaborating with the Voorheesville Public Library, 4-H educators and students and other animal specialists for a week of animal meet and greets, demonstrations, animal-themed activities, and garden tours by the CCE Albany County Master Gardener volunteers. There will be special exhibitions each evening. Children and families can stop in anytime between 6:00 and 8:00 pm and may attend as many evenings as desired.
For all ages. No registration required. For more information, contact Gail, Voorheesville Public Library at 518-765-2791 or gail.brown@voorpl.org
