The reptile shows go back as far as I can remember in Poughkeepsie. Throughout the years of checking out events at the old Mid Hudson Civic Center, it was always rock concerts, wrestling matches, record shows, home shows, train shows and reptile expos that would happen regularly in that historic building. Get on out with the family this weekend and check out some cool reptiles if you're looking for something fun to do on a Sunday afternoon.
