4. Build Your Own 4X4

Lowe's will reserve your child a FREE 4x4 kit that you can pick up anytime from 10 AM-8 PM on Saturday, June 10, or Sunday, June 11. You'll want to register for yours here, or it could be given away to a non-registered user. Your kids will have almost as much fun building it as they do playing with it.  

5. Petco Adoption Event

Looking for a new best buddy of the furry four-legged variety? Come to Petco for Saturday's adoption event hosted by Humane Society of the Ouachitas! Not only could you meet the next love of your life, you'll also have access to experts who are well-educated on the personalities of each and every dog and cat up for adoption.
