When
Jan. 27, 2024. 12:00 p.m. - 1:00 p.m.
Groundhog Day is celebrated every February 2, and legend has it that if the curious critter sees its shadow, we'll have six more weeks of winter. However, if no shadow is spotted, spring will arrive early.
Celebrate this tradition by meeting Sweet Pea, an educational ambassador from AWARE, our local wildlife rehabilitation group. Sweet Pea will be on site from 12 p.m.-1 p.m. No fancy dress required for this gala, just dress for the weather as the program will be held outside.
For more information, please call 804-796-4472 or email Rebecca Whalen to register.
