The Stevens County Historical Museum in Morris is sponsoring another Facebook contest beginning Feb. 1. Through a random drawing of you can win a copy of Karen Aakre’s book, “A Goat’s Tail: Curley Gets Cold Feet.”

“A Goat’s Tail” was written by Aakre and published by their family to tell the true story of Curly the Angora goat who escaped from a 2011 Christmas Eve service in Fergus Falls.

Curly’s adventures continued for 25 days and made international headlines. Aakre is one of the artists represented in the museum’s current From Sheep to Shawl exhibit that runs through Feb. 28.

The contest will run until the exhibit closes on Feb. 28.

The winner’s name will be drawn virtually using a random number generator and announced on the museum homepage, www.stevenshistorymuseum.com as well as their Facebook page.
