Nicole Mazewski, Neighbor

Have the whole family show off their carving skills and participate in the zoo’s 1st Annual Pumpkin Carving Contest! Bring your WILDlife themed pumpkins to the zoo on Friday, October 26 from 10am-4pm, or on Saturday, October 27 from 10am-1pm. There is a $2 entry fee, with proceeds benefiting conservation. The contest has three age groups for judging: 7-12 years, 13-17 years and 18+ years, and the winner of each group will receive a one year individual zoo membership. Certificate awards will go to the scariest, most realistic, funniest, staff choice and more!


Winners will be announced at the Spooky Zoo event on 10/27 from 6-9pm.
