As the weather cools off, The Scovill Zoo prepares for the end of the season.
Heather Perdeu, Executive Director of the Scovill Zoo in Decatur, explains that the last day of their season is Columbus day which is Monday, October 14th.
Until then, there are plenty of events coming up for zoogoers of all ages. Perdeu notes September is a busy month. September 8th is Grandparents Day and The Zoorific Fundraiser, which we will hear more about next week on Regional Radio, is also this month.
Boo at The Zoo is Scovill Zoo's Halloween Celebration which features candy, treat stations, and lots of decorations. Tickets will be on sale at the end of this month. Perdeu mentions something they learned during COVID was doing tickets in the form of reservations is a big help to keep the line down.
Boo at The Zoo takes place every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from October 17th through October 30th. There are also sensory-friendly hours for anyone who prefers that.
