Thank you, Minnesota Zoo Members! Your amazing support has raised $17,030 to sponsor the Snow Monkey on the Zoo’s new Conservation Carousel!
In honor of the Minnesota Zoo’s 35th anniversary and the Snow Monkey’s 35 years at the Zoo, the Carousel’s Snow Monkey has been reserved exclusively for Minnesota Zoo members. Generous member support has been the bedrock of the Zoo’s 35-year history, and the Carousel’s Snow Monkey will stand in honor of all the wonderful members who have made that history possible.
Construction is well underway, and the Carousel will soon bring more smiles, laughter, happiness, and fun to Minnesota Zoo visits. We couldn’t do it without you!
