Zoo on the Lawn - June 18

Mark your calendar for this summer’s “Zoo on the Lawn” at 5:30pm, June 18.

This event is a great time for inviting friends and neighbors. We will have free hot dogs and hamburgers, ice cream from WestRay’s (the first 100 kids get a free ice cream!), and of course a petting zoo on the front lawn from Laughing Place Farms.

We’ll see you there!
