Come out to the conservation center at the Russell Wildlife Area at 10:00 am on Saturday, December 9th to listen to a wonderful story called The Mitten, by Jan Brett. After the story, participants can decorate a very special pair of mittens. One mitten will be placed on the tree in the conservation center and the other mitten can go home with you. Donate a pair of warm mittens or gloves and bring them to this event! All donated mittens will be given to a local charity to help keep people warm this winter. Mitten-shaped cookies will be available to decorate for a yummy treat! This event is for all ages. Registration deadline is Dec. 7th.
