We schedule volunteer days periodically that involve gardening, building, painting and repairs to animal exhibits. There is always a need for help around the zoo!
Paws On Volunteer Days (8am to 11am):
June 8, 2024
August 10, 2024
We encourage community organizations to plan projects that will benefit the LPG&Z.
Then present the plan to the zoo director for approval.
Once approved, a date can be set for your group to implement your plan.
Some examples include Garden Club and Eagle Scout projects that enhance the zoo.

Zoo Explorers are High School Students between the ages of 14 and 18 who have an interest in exploring careers related to animals, have a desire to learn and teach about animals, or want to learn and practice leadership skills. If this includes you, come check us out.
