Hi all....well I am in the final stages of the Reptile Expo at my son's school. It will happen from 12 to 2 on Wednesday. Oye.....it has been allot of work...more than I thought. We are having over 30 animals and there is a mining equipment company that has graciously offered to print out a booklet in color for the kids. Actually that blew me away!! We have over 360 kids coming to the show. I have created a 25 page powerpoint with pictures. They get to learn about each reptile and then they get to interact with the animals. This will be the feature story with a local paper here and hopefully by some local TV stations as well.
One of our very own is coming with some of her babies...a huge thank you to Eventide!!! She also is bringing a friend that is a Vet tech for the leading reptile vet here in Tucson. He works with companies such as the Tucson zoo and the Sonoran Desert Museum. We also have a local reptile store participating and over 30 volunteers. I am so lucky that this has been so embraced and that I have met some AMAZING ppl that are helping me out.
I am so excited to share my passion with kids and hopefully open a few minds at the same time. I also plan to mention to the papers S373 and what is going on with that as well.
So yea.....just thought I would share.....hope to get some pics for you and post em up!!
