This week at the Urec Summer camp a visit from the Birmingham Zoo was a hit. Campers enjoyed seeing animals, learned cool facts about snakes and lizards, and discovered how to interact with them safely. Their curiosity was piqued by animal artifacts and their critical thinking was challenged with a fun Animal Scavenger Hunt! They also enjoyed a great play called Into the Woods.

What's better than a relaxing mind in a quiet space? Yesterday, we brought URec on the Go to The Library's staff for their professional development day, ending their day with a relaxing Chair Yoga! uablibraries
