Boo at the Zoo!

Starts: Sunday, October 17 12:00 PM

Ends: Sunday, October 17 4:00 PM

Boo at the Zoo is back and better than ever! This must attend Halloween event has something for everyone! Show up in your coolest costume to trick or treat while you experience the wonders of the animal kingdom. Win a cool prize at the Pumpkin Patch Prize Hunt or enjoy an educational talk focused on "Myths and Misunderstood Animals". For something a little more active, the Spooky Scavenger Hunt will take you on a tour to visit the Valley Zoo's Halloween animals including snakes, wolves, owls, bats and more! Take a break and get up close with the creepy crawly reptile and amphibian demonstrations or show your creative side and make your very own Clip-on Vampire Bat! Stop by the elephant yard and watch the Elephant Jack-O-Lantern Stomp or relax and enjoy the Frightening Face Painting. For an extra special treat enjoy the incredible live music or see what you can uncover while digging in the bone-yard attraction. There will also be a number of animal encounters, science experiments and a very special and spooky Witches Den attraction. Before you head home make sure you drop off your unused cell phone and charger for recycling and you'll help us save endangered gorillas by preventing habitat loss due to the mining of materials needed in the production of new phones. For doing your part in helping us with this amazing project, you'll receive an entry ballot to win a Nintendo Wii! Just one more reason to make Boo at the Zoo one of your Halloween traditions!
