What better way to spend a glorious spring day than taking in the sight of really COOL animals at Southwick's Zoo in Mendon, MA? We will enjoy visiting our furry, feathered and scaley friends and maybe even spend a little time learning something about them. We will eat on-site and you can bring spending money to browse one of the gift shops if there is time.
Due to a generous gift, May and June Saturday Recreation events will be held at a low cost. Because of this wonderful opportunity, we know that the demand for spots will be very high. In order to make the process equitable, we will be selecting participation spots by lottery. You can select as many of the below events as you would like and your participant's name will be entered into the lottery for each of those events. There are 12 available spots for each event, and thereafter a waitlist will be created from the same lottery. The registration lottery for each event will close at 12:00PM 8 days prior to the event and lottery winners for each event will be notified that same day by 4pm.
*The lottery for this trip will close on 5/23
