Venue notes from Salado Area tracks

Addie's Petting Zoo (MOBILE)

Zoo operates as a mobile attraction that travels to communities, offering pony rides and animal encounters at various locations rather than operating from a fixed facility
The zoo held its soft opening on eclipse day (2024) and is currently undergoing large expansions with plans to add new animals to their collection

Features a separate adult bar area that is physically isolated from children's activities, allowing parents to enjoy beverages while their older children participate in supervised entertainment
Offers kiddie go-karts specifically designed for younger children who cannot drive standard go-karts, expanding accessibility across a wider age range

Operates a 150-acre safari property where visitors can feed and interact with free-roaming animals including 5 giraffes (including a baby), 10 Asian small-clawed otters, zebras, kangaroos, capybaras, sloths, and deer
The ranch features an unusual interactive otter swimming experience maintained at 94 degrees water temperature, where swimming is optional and visitors can alternatively participate in a play space with the otters
