Carson City Cooperative Extension offering 2 Day Camps - How to Raise Small Farm Critters
Carson City University of Nevada Cooperative Extension, in partnership with Carson City Parks and Recreation and Friends of Silver Saddle Ranch, is offering two weekly sessions at Silver Saddle Ranch, 2648 Carson City Road in Carson City, for youth who are not able to keep or raise a small farm animal to experience working with either rabbits or goats. Area 4-H leaders will bring their animals for attendees, 9 – 14 years of age, to work with in these hands on day camps.
Attendees will learn what it takes to select and raise a rabbit or goat – handling, health and nutrition, showing, housing and how to have fun. A fee of $50 per attendee, per camp, includes water, snacks and basic educational materials.
Week One: Let’s Learn About Rabbits – June 18 – 21, 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Week Two: Funny and Fabulous Goats – June 25 – 28, 8:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.
Space is limited to the first 10 attendees registered and the deadline is Friday, June 7, 2019.
Please call the Carson City Cooperative Extension office at 775-887-2252 to register for one or both day camps.
