Plans are underway for the 5th Annual Youth EXPO in Alva, Oklahoma. This event for kids of all ages will be held at the Merchants’ Building at the Woods County Fairgrounds, Friday, June 24, 2011 from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. There’s no charge for entry to the EXPO.

At numerous stations, children preschool through elementary age will be able to enjoy hands-on activities and make a number of items to take home. These activities are designed so children can have fun while learning about the world around them. One station will be a large nature display. Other stations will feature “Animal Skins and Skulls”, “Petting Zoo”, “Trees”, “Rocks”, “Plants” “Early Life in Oklahoma”, “Oklahoma State Symbols” and many other interesting items.

The Alva Public Library will display books that children can check out to continue exploring these subjects. At 11:00 A.M. and 1:00 P.M., the Alva Police Department K-9 Unit will make presentations using their drug dogs. At 11:30 A.M. and 1:30 P.M., presentations will be made by the Alva Fire Department demonstrating the Jaws of Life.

Come join the fun!
