Leave a lasting impression of your support of our train and your zoo or of honoring a loved one, by purchasing a personalized, laser engraved brick. These brick pavers are standard sized bricks, and are displayed near the entrance to our James Gang Train Depot. Proceeds from the brick project helps with the costs of operating the train, acquiring new passenger coaches, as well as funding other zoo projects.
Forms for purchasing a train brick can be found at the gift shop, or HERE to download the form and send it to us. You can also CLICK HERE TO ORDER ONLINE.! Cost for the bricks is $100 for two lines of text and $125 for 3 lines of text. There is a maximum of 18 characters, including spaces and punctuation, per line.
Send us an e-mail (lpzs@yahoo.com) to let us know if you have materials or professional services you wish to donate to improve animal habitats or for use in any projects that would benefit the zoo.
It's almost time for Spring Cleaning! If you have any of these items you planned to throw out, we would be happy to take them off your hands! We are always looking for ways to reuse items and these would be very beneficial to us!
All donations can be dropped off to the front office for a zookeeper to come collect!
