The Alameda County Fairgrounds on August 16th hosts the “wildest” drive-in you can imagine. Your wildlife adventure featuring live animals awaits. This is a Social Distancinig and Pandemic friendly event even if it is where “the wild things are”.

You and your whole family will enjoy a fun, educational, wild animal experience. Enjoy a little monkey madness or partake in a little lemur mischeif.

Kevin Keith’s Wild About Monkeys presents silver screen sensation Mickey the Baboon who has started with movie greats Morgan Freeman, Tom Cruz, and Sandra Bullock. Mickey, his brother Mojo and the rest of their friends will delight you. Learn more at becomeonevoice.com
