Hilarie’s Helpful Hints has invited Tracy Hill from Furs, Scales & Tails to share over 18 types of animals with us during this 45 mins. Show. There will be an assortment of animals to see, touch, pet and take photographs with after our learning and greeting demonstration. Come meet chicks to chickens, snacks, guinea pigs, snakes, rabbits and many more!
Bring your picnic blanket and lawn chairs for a comfortable seat for this educational and interactive animal show! Bring your cameras and don’t be late, this show is not to be missed!
A Typical Fur, Scales, and Tails Show:
“There is very little set up involved (three
small folding card
tables). The Animal stars arrive in their travel containers.
Each
Animal is called out one at a time by name and presented to the
audience. Each
Animal then does a trick or two for the enjoyment
of the audience. Then that particular
Animal is presented to the
audience for some petting time. After every audience
member
gets a chance to pet the little star, we then leave that Animal out
on display
(eating or playing) for the audience to continue to enjoy
them for the remainder
of the show. This pattern continues from
the first to the last Animal.”
Bonus Time:
After the last Animal is presented, the audience will then get
additional
time to hold and pet some of their favorite Animal
stars. Additional photos and videos
may be taken at this time.).
More Info: http://www.furscalesandtails.com/
RSVP REQUIRED! Please RSVP for your spot at this Show: hilarie_hsu@hotmail.com
