“Wild About Reading” was the theme for the evening, which started with an enthusiastic performance by the high school band and drum line, and included a wild animal presentation by Horn T Zoo, a chance to visit therapy dogs, and a wide variety of educational games and activities. There was also a snack station, with Raelynn Bygland providing treats.
It was a large event making use of most of the elementary school, the Performance Gym and multi-purpose gym, and attendance was high at about 600 people, including 240 students. Organizers were staff members Trina Hellbusch and Amber Hamik.
