Paris, Tenn.–A crowd of kids–and parents–enjoyed snacks, crafts, and stories at Monday’s Story Hour at the Atkins-Porter Neighborhood Botanical Garden. The weekly Story Hours are hosted by the W.G. Rhea Library. This week, Cori Hopkins, at left, read to the kids and brought frozen yoguert and a dairy-themed craft for them. She is National Dairy Month Chairman. Story Hours are held at 10:30 a.m. Mondays and Wild Life programs from the Tennessee National Refuge are held at the same time on Thursdays. The Botanical Garden is at 311 Jackson St., Paris.
