ABOUT THE ZOO SOCIETY

The Zoo Society fosters the relationship between Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium and our community by raising funds and generating community support.

The Zoo Society supports the mission of PDZA by providing financial and in-kind resources for the Zoo’s recreation, education and conservation programs, its animal collections, and its permanent and temporary exhibitions.

ANNOUNCEMENT: ZOOBILEE 2018

We have important news to share. The Zoo Society Board of Directors has made the decision to not hold the Zoobilee Gala & Auction this summer. This will allow us to focus on celebrating the opening of the new aquarium and share it with our community.

We DO have new exciting events for 2018 in the works – more details coming soon!
• Special Opening Event to see the new Pacific Seas Aquarium before the public opening (July TBD)
• Luncheon to support education programs on September 18
• ZooBOOze & Bites on October 25

Change is exciting and The Zoo Society is looking forward to an amazing year full of new experiences, learning and supporting our gem of the community.
