Do your children or your family enjoy frequently visiting the Scovill Zoo and many other area zoos?

Perhaps its time to consider getting a membership to the Scovill Zoo in Decatur. Assistant Director of the Scovill Zoo in Decatur, Ken Frye explains there are a lot of discounts that come along with having a zoo membership. Admission is free year round for members. Frye adds memberships last on a year to year basis.

Members of the zoo also get invited to several other events throughout the year at the Zoo. Frye notes one of those events is this Friday. Their annual Friends of the Zoo picnic gives members an opportunity to enjoy food provided by the zoo and to also help support the animals they have.

Another advantage Zoo members may appreciate is a perk that provides discounts to other area zoos. Frye notes only does it give you free admission to the Scovill Zoo but it also provides half off admission to other area zoos such as Bloomington and Springfield, but also zoos around the country.

Membership fees are $70 for a family, or $30 a person. And again, the membership lasts the entire year.
