About This Event
Join us for an afternoon of reading with some furry friends! Children are invited to read to a therapy dog from the BARK volunteer program. Trained to be good listeners, therapy dogs can help boost children's self-confidence and reading skills. Dogs will be offered on a first-come first-served basis. For ages 5 - 11.
