We are truly thrilled to share some incredible news! Our chapter is joining forces with Junior Achievement of the Palm Beach and Treasure Coast to make a meaningful difference through their Career Exploration Fairs. This is more than just an event, it's a powerful opportunity to inspire young hearts and ignite their dreams. We will have the honor of speaking to several elementary schools, sharing our passion for zoo careers, and revealing the exciting world that awaits them. Together, we're opening doors to endless possibilities and fueling the fire of curiosity and ambition in the next generation!

Week 3 of Young Wildlife Explorers went great. We taught the kids about the ocean. We asked them to draw us what they think the ocean looks like. Then after the lesson we ask them to draw what they learn. For some reason they all drew about the giant squid.
