I didn't expect this ad when I opened Tompkins Weekly last night:
Eastern States Hedgehog Show
@ Etna Fire Department
Wood Road, Freeville, NYJuly 9th, 20111, 9am-5pm
Public Welcome & Encouraged!!!
The Hedgehog Welfare Society would like to invite you to join us for the Annual Eastern States Hedgehog Show. Come learn about hedgehogs and see a few up close and personal!
It's $5 for ages 12 and up, $3 for children 5-12, and free for kids under 5. My favorite line in the ad is this:
Hedgehogs are welcome to attend and participate day of show, but pre-registration would be greatly appreciated.
Here's a brief description of a 2009 show. Sungiva likes the hedgehogs in her books, so I may just have to take her.
