💬 What Parents Say

  • 🕐Arrive before lunch rush hours to enjoy the picnic area when it's less crowded and food lines are shorter
  • 💡Take advantage of AAA membership discounts on zoo admission to save on entry costs
  • 💡The picnic area is well-shaded with plenty of seating space, making it an ideal spot to rest during your zoo visit
  • 💡Don't feed the ducks vegetables—they prefer other food items. Keep snacks handy if you want to interact with the friendly ducks in the area
  • 💡Wildlife frequently visits the picnic grounds (ducks, squirrels), so stay alert and move slowly to observe animals up close without startling them
