Each August, we celebrate you, our members. And, for the second year in a row, the highlight of Member Appreciation Month was our recent Zoorific Picnic, which drew thousands of members on a warm Saturday evening. Members delighted in up-close animal encounters (the sugar glider was a particular hit) and special elephant training demonstrations, plus fun extras like face painting and carousel rides.
Many thanks to those who attended, and to all our members. August may be the month that we tell you how much we love you, but please know that the feeling motivates us year-round.
