Back to School Night

Get up close with some of the Zoo’s cutest residents! Guests will get to learn all about the Giant River Otters and get the chance to watch the otters enjoy their favorite afternoon snack.

Students in grades 6 – 12 from several local churches are invited to throw on their “best” flannel for a night of fall fun—with games, snacks, music, and teaching. Youth Connect Nights will happen monthly this fall!

Our Kids’ Makerspace is a hands-on zone and free family event where children can enjoy an engaging storytime and then complete a make-and-take project. From building simple machines to trying out recycled art projects, it’s the perfect place for young minds to tinker, invent, and play.
