>> Area Youth Go Wild for Zoo Camp

Full Day 9:00 am to 3:00 pm $175 week
Half Day 9:00 am to 12:00 pm $100 week

Zoo Camp is scheduled for June 22-26 and interest is once again phenomenal. We are planning some great activities this year including animals shows and guest speakers so come join the fun! Open registration begins May 1st and slots will be filled on a first come, first served basis.

Zoo Camp is divided into two groups:  Preschool children ages 3 to 5 in a half day session (9 am to 12 pm must be fully potty trained to participate) and elementary school age children, ages 5 to 11, in a full day session (9 am to 3:00 pm) conducted by licensed teachers and trained volunteers.  Children in both age groups will explore animal life at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo, meet our animal care-takers, and even greet some of our animal residents personally.  They will also participate in age-specific games, arts and crafts projects and special zoo-related events.  There will be plenty of hands-on educational and fun activities carried out in a safe and educational environment.
