December 10:
Jerry Zelenka will do his touch of nature for our Holiday meeting. "Lizards, ten-foot snakes, chinchillas, bunnies, tarantulas, things that slither, chirp, hoot or croak fascinate boys and girls and all the parents. That is just what Jerry Zelenka, a retired science teacher, will bring to your home for a Wild Animal Party. His exotic animal collection and the time he spends are geared to the age group. Jerry gets down to the children's level as he pulls animals, one at a time, out of his many vintage suitcases, but it's all very safe and controlled (reptile mouths are taped, for example). Children are riveted to Jerry and his animals, which they are allowed to touch." from www.mofflymedia.com/Moffly-Publications/Greenwich-Magazine/October-2006/Lets-Have-a-Party/
