October Family Programs

Family Programs: What a great way to kick off the Halloween season early!!

Night Fliers- SATURDAY, October 2nd, 1-2 P.M.


These mammals only come out at night but you won’t find them on the ground, they take to the night sky! In this class we will explore the different types of bats that live all around the world as well as visit our bats that live right here in our Zoo.

Egyptian Fruit Bat

Creepy Crawlers- SATURDAY, October 23rd, 1 P.M. OR
SUNDAY, October 24th, 1 P.M.


Are you scared of critters like millipedes and spiders? Learn more about these "creepy crawler" creatures and you will find that they are not so scary after all.

Whether you're a mob of meerkats or a flock of geese, there is something for your family to do at the Zoo! Each month there's a special topic you'll explore and as a family through up close animal encounters, and special activities to learn more about our wonderful world and the animals that live here.
