Lions and Tigers and Bears.... Oh my!

For those of you that don't know, I am over the activities for my church. This year for our summer party I rented two huge pavillions at Como Park. Como Park has this great little zoo that is free to the public. So, during the day families were able go to the zoo and see the sights. Then, everyone met at the pavillions for dinner.

As everyone was arriving, the little kids (and some "big" kids) were given zoo animal masks and then little bags to go on a safari. We hid little animals all around the area.

The tables were covered with butcher paper and I put crayons on the table so people could exibit their artist abilities. Also, I put little bags of animal crackers on the table for everyone to nibble on.

After dinner there was softball, volleyball, Badminton, frisbee and so on. All in all I think everyone had a good time. I will never get released!
