Cool Coyotes Party 2009

Once a year we have a special party for our Cool Coyotes and Pinocchio Club members, and conveniently enough we call this party the Cool Coyote Party. The 2009 party happened this past Saturday, November 14th.


This year we had a blast!


We had Dan Pratt of Pratt's Pets here and he (and his children) provided a petting zoo for the festivities. There was a goat, a guinea pig, a bunny, and ducklings & chicks. That was a lot of fun!


Dinner was provided by the Elephant Bar of Chandler with bread provided by Karsh's Bakery. And, we had dessert thanks to Fairytale Brownies.






If you're interested in joining the fun and becoming a Cool Coyote member you can check out our Membership Page on our website at azpuppets.org


Thanks again to: Pratt's Pets, The Elephant Bar in Chandler, Karsh's Bakery, and Fairytale Brownies.
