Party for the Planet: Spring Into Action is a national campaign hosted by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums from Earth Day to World Oceans Day! It connects families to nature through volunteer opportunities that improve our planet. Join us for our kick-off event on Earth Day (April 22nd) from 10am to noon. We will be cleaning up Zoo grounds and could use your help! This will include trash pick up inside the park, along SW 9th, the entrance drive and parking lots. This is a family volunteer event. Those 8 years and older are welcomed to join us for this event alongside an adult. Click here to sign up: https://signup.com/go/ pJhJTND
