Commemorative Brick
Leave a lasting legacy with a commemorative brick. These bricks are placed in special locations throughout the zoo, serving as a permanent tribute to your generosity. It’s a wonderful way to honor a loved one or celebrate a special occasion.
With each $150 contribution, your name or the name of a special friend or family member, favorite pet, or event will be engraved on a 4″x8″ brick and placed on the pathways around the Zoo’s Entry Plaza.
