Forty-two years ago, Fort Worth was abuzz with reported sightings of the Lake
Worth Monster - described as a hairy, scaly 7-foot-tall man-goat-beast.
Though sightings of the creature haven't occurred regularly since the

legend and its habitat. The 2011 celebration is just around the corner
and you will want to be a part of this fun-filled family event!

all ages are invited to make biodegradable bird treats ahead of time and
