WADDINGTON -- The Waddington Hepburn Library recently hosted a “reptiles forever” show with Mary Benvenuto.

The show, which took place March 29, featured snakes, a tortoise, a toad, a tarantula, a wallaby and a lizard.

One hundred people attended the event, according to library staffers.

A jelly bean raffle was held, with Reece Belmore and Hailee Blair, both of Waddington, as the lucky winners.
