<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">What would summer at the Vernon Museum be like without a reptiles show? Stuart Brown, a self-taught reptile enthusiast, will be returning once again for two presentations this summer.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">If snakes, bearded dragons and red-eyed free frogs fascinate you, don’t miss this opportunity to get up close and personal with these scaly, cold-blooded vertebrates.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">This approximately one and a half hour presentation is appropriate for adults and children (seven and up) alike. Don’t forget to bring your camera and questions. Following the presentation, there will be
an opportunity to ask questions and possibly take your picture with one of his reptiles.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Choose from two dates, either Saturday July 29<sup>th</sup> or Saturday August 26<sup>th</sup>, from 10:30am-12:00pm. As space is limited and Stuart’s Reptiles shows are always popular, you are encouraged
to purchase your tickets early, to avoid disappointment. Tickets are $5.00/person available at the museum. For more information please call (250) 542-3142 or visit
