Balto has a heroic story about saving people from cholera. But was he really the hero or is there more to the story?
After we gather at the Dairy Visitor Center at 10 am, we’ll walk to Balto’s statue where David Baram, a Central Park volunteer, will tell the real story behind this legendary dog. Then, feel free to sketch in the vicinity on your own.
