Two dogs will visit the Great Bend Public Library today for a Summer Reading Program activity. Pam Jones, animal control officer from the City of Hays, will bring her therapy dogs Hank and Jacques at 2 p.m. to teach children about dogs.
Eric Coulbourne, children’s librarian, said Jones will be speaking about animal safety during disasters such as tornadoes. She will walk the kids through making a disaster plan for their pets in addition to their own disaster plan.
The library will also host a British Tea Party at 2 p.m. on Saturday.
"We invite children to put on their fanciest tea party outfit and be part of the funnest tea party ever!" Coulbourne said. "Join us for stories, fun and games."
