O'Neill Room, Lower Level Elm Grove Library

Have you ever wondered how dogs learn to "sit", "stay" and "come"? Come see how professional dog trainers instruct owners how to create a bond with their dogs while teaching them basic household manners and socialization skills. You will learn how people can raise a healthy, happy, well-mannered dog during this obedience class demonstration. There will be plenty of time after the program for children to pet the dogs. Children of all ages are welcome and must be accompanied by an adult.
After the program, you are invited to attend the annual "Lights of Love" tree lighting ceremony in front of the Elm Grove Village Hall. Join other residents and sing a variety of holiday carols. Then count down with others to see the "Lights of Love" tree come ablaze with love. Following the tree lighting ceremony, refreshments will be served in the Court Room of the Elm Grove Village Hall.
