Zoo Crew (Events Volunteer)

Save to Favorites

Join us for our Events as a Zoo Crew Volunteer!

Zoo Crew volunteers are individuals who can’t come out regularly or just want to volunteer once but still want to give back to us. Zoo Crew volunteers facilitate guest interactions during special events and projects; they are often the first impression our guests receive. You can join us for events like Zoo Boo Bash, Asian Lantern Festival, Hippity Hop, Sunset at the Zoo, Brews at the Zoo, and so much more! You could be playing games with guests, leading craft activities, providing directions/information, or handing out treats to guests, as just a few examples.
