Tall Wonders Giraffe Habitat Grand opening President's Day weekend
Exactly one year from the February 2009 groundbreaking for Tall Wonders, we are proud to announce that the grand opening celebration event will be President’s Day weekend 2010!
Visit the Zoo Friday, February 12 to Monday, February 15, and see Val, Skye & Goody in their new home. For the very first time, visitors will be eye to eye with the stately residents on the 1,100 square foot raised deck. The elevated platform also provides a magnificent view into the neighboring zebra and ostrich area.
The state-of-the-art block barn (yes, it’s heated!) provides warm nights for the three giraffes, while the expanded grounds allow for leisurely giraffe-size strolls during the day.
With the finishing touches almost completed, we are grateful to our friends for your support and commitment to the project. We are just dollars away from reaching the $2 million goal. If you would like to participate in providing some of the still-needed “extras” in equipment, office supplies or giraffe necessities, we would appreciate your help. Please donate here.
The Sacramento Zoological Society is 100% committed to providing the best possible care and facilities for the Zoo’s animals. With continued community support, we will improve and enrich the Zoo for future generations.
