During the month of December, your Program and Product Sales staff will be traveling our three fine hubs to meet with volunteers and older girls to gather ideas, offering a patient listening ear, and begin the stages of planning for the 09 Summer Programs and Product Sales!  Come meet with us for hors d’oeuvres and 2 hours of you getting to have your voice heard and matter while we strive to make sure our council offers the best possible Programs for our girls that help them Discover, Connect, and Take Action!

Event Description:

When the sun goes down the fun starts up at the Santa Barbara Zoo!

Take a step away from the ordinary and jump into the newest adventure at the Santa Barbara Zoo! Our program runs every Friday and Saturday night from September to May, 6:30 p.m. to 10:15 a.m. You get to decide if the whole group sleeps in a heated classroom or, for the more adventurous type, camps near the lions at Cabrillo Lawn.

Our sleepover program emphasizes the different ways the Santa Barbara Zoo focuses on conservation, from the exotic to the local animals. Instructors will lead the group through fun experiments and activities to investigate animal adaptations and different skills necessary to study animals. Activities include a night walk, making behavioral enrichment bags for the animals, up close education animal encounters, special behind-the-scenes experience, and special time with a zookeeper.

This experience is designed to cater to your group’s wishes, so they get to decide what animal we’ll focus on, whether it’s Herbivores (elephants or gorillas) or Creepy Crawlies (snakes, lizards, frogs). We will also provide a group photo and lots of other fun surprises.

GIRLS SLEEP IN TENTS ON THE LAWN. TROOPS NEED TO SUPPLY THEIR OWN TENTS OR MAKE ARRANGMENTS WITH COUNCIL TO BORROW/RENT TENTS.
