The Little House on the Park at Curt Gowdy State Park hosts the second of our Kindness to Animals Days on Friday, August 23, from 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.. 

The Little House teaches that kindness is love, and love is kindness. During the event, Little House staff will create moments of love and kindness between children, their families, and the animals at two local animal rescue organizations: the Cheyenne Animal Shelter and Yola’s Pet Rescue. 

The Rescues will set up a table in the space around the Little House on the Park, where they will have ambassador pets, information on adopting, and staff to speak with guests about each organization and the amazing work that they do. 

            Throughout the day, the Little House will feature programming that highlights kindness to animals, including animal stories, Arts of Kindness crafts with animal themes, and puzzles and games which promote messages of kindness to pets and wildlife. 

Guests who are interested in volunteering to help rescue animals find homes will be able to get information about the Doggy Day Out program and volunteer passes sponsored by Little House on the Park. 

The day and its programming are made possible by the generosity of the Gowdy Family Fund and the Macfarland Foundation. Curt Gowdy State Park is grateful for the support and love provided by the Gowdy family. We hope you’ll join us for a day full of kindness and love for animals.
