Come stay with us for a wild time where you and your family will have a once in a lifetime experience to meet some zoo animals and learn about, create, and give the animals at the zoo play items to encourage them to stay active in their habitats!
Agenda
Fridays from 2-4 PM: behind the scenes tour - Go behind the scenes at the Oglebay Good Zoo and meet & greet with some of the rare and endangered animals in our care!
Saturdays from 10 AM – 2:30 PM: Play with the Animals Workshop - In this interactive experience, you will learn about environmental enrichment and discover how Good Zoo animals stay psychologically stimulated. You'll help zoo team members create special toys and treats to be enjoyed by the zoo animals. After a quick boxed lunch break, you'll help our animal keepers share the toys and treats you created, and observe how the animals interact with your creations!
Sundays from 10 AM – 12 PM: Crafts Gone Wild Workshop: In this hands on session you'll work with our animal keepers to build hammocks, beds, and feeders for the animals to enjoy. Plus, you'll assist our animal keepers with sharing the creations with your animal friends and get to observe their reactions.
