Ventriloquist Val Hilliker of Bluffton holds up her caterpillar puppet named Mr. See as a group of children in Blackfalds holds their caterpillar puppets aloft as well. Hilliker brought her ventriloquist show to the Blackfalds Community Hall on Tuesday to introduce the Camp Curious participants to the art of being a ventriloquist. For eight weeks this summer, children in Blackfalds have had the chance to participate in a variety of week-long camps offered by the town.
