Military Appreciation Day

Celebrate the brave men & women who've served

November 8th admission will be free for veterans and up to four of their guests!*

This brand-new event is dedicated to celebrating those who have served. We’ll have Insider Chats, animal enrichment, resource tables, community partners on site, and more.

We’ll also be hosting a food drive for Pets for Vets. If you bring cat food (dry & wet), cat litter, dog food (dry & wet), pet beds, pet sweaters, and pet toys, to the Zoo on November 8th you’ll receive $2 off admission.

*Guest will be required to present a copy of a DD214, VA ID card, Military ID, or Monroe County Veterans ID card prior to using Veteran tickets to enter the zoo. A valid government I.D. may be required to confirm program eligibility.

Participating Organizations

This day is made possible in partnership with the Monroe County Office of Veterans Services and the Veterans Outreach Center. Thank you to all of our community partners helping make this event possible! These partners will be onsite from 9AM - 1 PM only.
