Come hang out from 2pm-5pm and support Traumatic Brain Injury awareness & recovery. This event is special to me because my own husband suffered a TBI. There will be a live DJ, Petting Zoo, Games, Raffles, Prizes etc. Melissa's Yard will be there live with many of my Insects and reptiles (weather permitting)! I'll be giving short talks about my animals, answering all your questions, and letting you and your kids take pictures with some of my creatures. I'll also have insect and reptile themed stickers for sale! If you make a scarecrow you could win a prize! Pop by our table and say hello while you explore and support this amazing community.
