There will also be lawn games, a chance to cool off at the splash pad and, of course, plenty of time to visit your favorite zoo animals. You can even enter for a chance to win a private animal experience led by one of the zoo's expert zookeepers!
Dance to the Sounds of Summer
And what's a tropical party without some great music?
Bring a lawn chair or blanket and settle in on the shoreline green space near the black bears for a performance by Too Drunk to Fish. The group brings a fun tribute to Jimmy Buffett along with plenty of other party music that might have you dancing before the night is over.
