SUMMER 2020 EVENTS:
– Saturdays & Sundays, June 1 – Labor Day – RISE AND SHINE MEMBER MORNINGS – 8:00 a.m.
Members can enter the Zoo at 8 a.m. every Saturday and Sunday morning through Labor Day weekend! Watch and listen as the Zoo wakes up. Want more? Non-member guests entering the Zoo with you will get early-entry, too (admission fees apply.)
– Wednesday, June 17 – MEMBER APPRECIATION NIGHT – 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
This night is all about YOU. Visit your favorite animals and beat the heat at our first after-hours event! Check out our scheduled keeper talks or stop by the member-priced cookout at Lodge at Moose Lake (cash/credit cards accepted). Reservations not required.
– Conservator Breakfast (invitation only) – TBA
– Thursday, July 9 – Patron Gold Dinner (invitation only)
– Thursday, July 16 – MEMBER ENRICHMENT NIGHT – 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Watch as select animals receive enrichment items at scheduled times throughout the evening. What’s ‘enrichment’? Enrichment is how we provide a stimulating environment for Zoo animals. Why? It gives them an opportunity to demonstrate species-typical behavior, exercise control and/or choice over their environment, and enhances their well-being! Reservations are not required.
– Tuesday, August 11 – END OF SUMMER MEMBER CELEBRATION NIGHT – 5:30 p.m. – 8:30 p.m.
Summer always ends too soon, so why not enjoy one last night at the Zoo before the kids go back to school? Beat the heat and enjoy the animals after-hours. The entire Zoo will be open, with scheduled animal demos and keeper talks. Reservations are not required.
