It's well documented that from Abraham Lincoln's earliest childhood days in Kentucky, he held a lifelong fondness for all sorts of animals.  On Saturday, May 20th, the park will celebrate little Abraham's love of the animal kingdom by hosting Kentucky Down Under.  At 1:00 p.m. EDT, Kentucky Down Under will bring animals, including a baby kangaroo, for kids (and kids at heart) to learn about and interact with!  This event is free and open to the public.
