Scout Nights: Boo at the Zoo

Even creepy crawlies need healthy habitats!  Gather your scouts and join us for an exclusive educational experience followed by access to the event of the season: Boo at the Zoo. Explore how bats, bugs and birds play important roles in the habitats we share and find out how you can make our wild spaces less spooky for all!  

From 4:00-6:00pm, scouts are invited to drop by to engage with interactive learning activities, meet animal ambassadors up-close, connect to the natural world, and earn a special patch. This program pairs perfectly with an evening of trick-or-treating!
