eeping a fresh perspective on experiencing wildlife expected, CLAWS ‘N’ PAWS Wild Animal Park considers educating visitors about critters top priority. Expanding an already magnificent reach to teach, this Lake Ariel destination provides social media pokes often spurring viewers to come see these amazing animals up close. Offering a peek at the park online viewers can find photos and videos that give details about individual animals. Including particulars like a name and habits even help to alleviate a sometimes misunderstood status. By proudly displaying a passion for Warthogs, Bearded Dragons, even Snakes and Skunks; zookeepers grant peepers images of these clever creatures often unseen that more often than not ignite and interest for a park visit. Agreeing hands-on learning is outstanding in understanding animals; guests enjoy periodic performances of educators

illustrating critters with a closing feel. Petting fur, scales and feathers find families flocked together for photos of the unique experience. Now, there’s even events like Kids ‘N’ Critters Day focused on themes like how to be a Zookeeper for the day and more to explore. While petting peculiar creatures is pretty awesome, other CLAW ‘N’ PAWS draws some equally impressive attention. Take one of their newest residents, Jethro the Giraffe. Arriving merely a few months ago, this towering sight blends in just right along with the likes of Lions, White Tigers, Bears and Snow Leopards. Intrigued by the idea of a destination like CLAWS ‘N’ PAWS right here in the Pocono Mountains, we just had to experience it for ourselves. Following the trend to send a few photos and videos of our own, check out what we posted online then keep on following facts & events at ThisWeek.net.

s y a w WOOD A

focus on “Goods from the Woods” awaits at this year’s Festival of Wood lumbering into Grey Towers National Historic Site, August 5th and 6th. Aged 13 years to perfection, guests of this familyfriendly free event will find various crafts and activities focusing on the wonders of wood in everyday living as a great way to chip away the day. Considered “a celebration of our natural and cultural heritage of wood” it’s only fitting that Grey Towers, the ancestral home of Gifford Pinchot, founder and first chief of our nation’s Forest Service, serves as host. Beauty and aroma splinter off the seemingly endless applications of wood. From chain saw carvings and crafts; to kid’s activities with wood—the splendor of wood is quite a sight to be seen. New this year, wood craftsmen offering one-of-a-kind wood items for sale will be “planted” onsite, plus walks and talks offered each day. Free parking, shuttle and admission lay the groundwork for building monumental family memories so don’t miss the Festival of Wood 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 10-4 Sunday.

SNOW

S

now days—a time to create memories...a time for celebration...a time for friends... a time to capture that succinct sense of carefree enjoyment we all appreciate. This endearing expression bears no seasonal setback with Barley Creek Brewing Company right on track and ready to host another monumental Mady’s Snow Day turnout Sunday, August 6.

Park it in the Creek’s Pintsize Park from 1 to 11 p.m. for an afternoon benefit in memory of Madyson Law. Keeping in line with the young girl’s ambitions of “Compassion and selflessness” contributing her time to area causes, Mady’s Angels

was formed and with that premise Mady’s Snow Day evolved. This effort in the cache of MA deeds invites everyone to enjoy a great time while raising funds for area organizations.

A lineup of stellar musicians are set to take the stage including local favorites like the Maybabies, Solution A.D., Porter & Sayles plus other outstanding performers. Barley Creek’s outrageously amazing BBQ and libations mixed with fun for all, makes for one sensational afternoon draw.

So eat, drink and be merry with family friendly games and more igniting all around community spirit—it’s the Mady’s Snow Day way! Tickets are just $10 with kids under 18 FREE. Barley Creek Brewing Company is located just off Route 80 taking Exit 299 right onto 715 North. Make a left at the Crossings Outlets and follow Sullivan Trail about a mile.
