PASADENA (CNS) – Goats and those who fancy the cloven hoofed creatures can get with billies and nannies — hundreds of them — on Saturday during an Earth Day celebration in Pasadena.
The free family-oriented event gets under way at 8:30 a.m. on the grass lawn next to the Rose Bowl Aquatics Center at Brookside Park and opens with the release of more than 600 goats into the Arroyo Seco as part of a nature-based wildfire prevention initiative.
There will also be a goat yoga session, a goat petting zoo and educational exhibits, art activities and contributions from community partner organizations.
In addition to celebrating Earth Day, the event will launch the wildfire prevention initiative, part of the response to the deadly Eaton and Palisades fires that ravaged the Altadena and Pacific Palisades areas. It is put on by the city of Pasadena and the One Arroyo Foundation and will be attended by Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo, Pasadena Fire Department Deputy Chief Tim Sell and One Arroyo Foundation Executive Director Daniel Rossman.
