Is your child interested in being a keeper for a day? Our keepers work very hard to provide the best care for the zoo's animals and are incredibly knowledgeable about a wide variety of species. It’s an important job, considering the role zoos play in conservation efforts around the globe. Your camper will experience how awesome it feels to help out and make a difference. Your child will go behind the scenes with our keeping & education staff as they help prepare diets, service (clean) animal habitats, and create enrichment for the animals.
Pre-registration is required and can be completed online or in person at the Colony Park Community Center (5599 Traffic Way) during customer service hours, Monday through Friday from 9 AM to 5 PM.
For registration questions, please call (805) 470-3360.
For more information about the camps, please contact the Zoo Education Department at (805) 470-3172 or zooeducation@atascadero.org.
