THE ZOO PROVIDES EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMS INSTRUCTING VISITORS ON THE HISTORY, RESEARCH,AND CONSERVATION OF THE ANIMALS EXHIBITED. THIS SERVICE IS PROVIDED AT A LOW COST FOR GROUPS OF SCHOOL CHILDREN, SENIORS, AND SPECIAL NEEDS GROUPS IN ORDER TO INSURE ALL CITIZENS HAVE ACCESS. THE EDUCATIONAL DEPARTMENT ALSO HOSTS PRIVATE TOURS OF THE EXHIBITS, WEEKEND CLASSES, SUMMER CAMPS, DAILY PROGRAMS, OVERNIGHT PROGRAMS, AND SPECIAL EVENTS. FOR GROUPS THAT ARE UNABLE TO REACH THE ZOO, THE EDUCATION DEPARTMENT OFFERS OUTREACH PROGRAMS AT THEIR LOCATION. WE OFFER A VARIETY OF PROGRAMS TO DIFFERENT GROUPS OF PEOPLE TO PROMOTE MULTIPLE VISITS AND ACCESS TO THOSE WHO MAY NOT BE ABLE TO VISIT BECAUSE OF FINANCIAL RESTRICTIONS OR THOSE WHO CAN ONLY GET TRANSPORTATION TO THE ZOO AS PART OF A GROUP. OFFERING GROUP ACTIVITIES ALLOWS OUR EDUCATION DEPARTMENT A BETTER OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE MORE INTERACTION AND TIME WITH SMALLER GROUPS OF PEOPLE. BECAUSE OF THIS WE ARE ABLE TO FOCUS ON FOSTERING A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF THE ANIMALS WE CARE FOR.
