Keeper Camp (Ages 12-17)
$100 per child
(10 % discount for Zoo members)
Do you dream about animals? Do you think measuring, scrubbing, sweeping and interacting with wild animals are good ways to spend your day? Have you always wanted to be a zookeeper? Well, here is your chance to see if you have what it takes. Come to the Zoo for a hands-on, behind the scenes, fun-filled day. Participants will spend their day with a staff member preparing animal diets, cleaning exhibits and creating enrichment for some of our animals. We will provide lunch, a T-shirt and a Keeper-tastic time!
Restrictions:
- Participants must submit a current (within three months of camp date) and certified negative TB test two weeks prior to camp.
- Participants must wear weather appropriate clothing and shoes that can get dirty and wet. Shoes must have closed toes and heels must be covered.
- Due to the nature of the program each camp is limited to 4 participants (Min 2 people).
