Cornell University’s Veterinary Open House – Ag Matters [VIDEO]

Whether there's a future veterinarian in the house or you just want to escape for some fun, Cornell University College of Veterinary Medicine Open House is the place to be.  It's Saturday, April 11 from 10 to 4 in Ithaca.  Get details, directions, how to get a ride and watch highlights from last year's event.

The open house is free and so is parking, although they do accept donations.  You can participate in health diagnosis clinics, lectures on First Aid, watch demonstrations or hang out at the petting zoo with rare and exotic animals.  Here's a schedule of events and demonstration times.

If you're looking for transportation, Oneida County 4-H will be offering a field trip to the open house for just $5.  Here's the registration form.  There won't be chaperones, so children must be accompanied by an adult.  The bus leaves at 8 a.m. and returns at 4 p.m.
