KCZoo - A Great Day to Visit the Zoo - FREE to Jackson & Clay County.

Monday, December 30 is the last Zoological District Free Day in 2013 and the Zoo staff has added to your day! They are going share their passion and knowledge of our animals with special animal demonstrations and chats. See attached press release for schedule and details.

Weather cold? Warm up in the Tropics, Discovery Barn, Snakes and catch a bird show in the Zoo’s auditorium. And, of course, visit our rock star Nikita at Polar Bear Passage. But most of all, stop in Helzberg Penguin Plaza where our feathered friends are awaiting your arrival to make you smile and laugh as they demonstrate their downhill slides, water aerobics and “graceful” torpedo ice-landings.

***Residents of Jackson and Clay County need only to bring a photo ID with their Jackson or Clay County address to the Zoo for their complimentary admission. Four free days are part of the Zoo’s gift to these residents who voted for and are supporting the Zoo through a 1/8 cent sales tax.

Outside of the Zoological District free days, all residents receive reduced Zoo admission year round
along, discounted Friends of the Zoo Members and additional benefits for schools, field trips and much
more. Visit the Zoo’s web site, www.kansascityzoo.org for details.
