 Students who are currently in fifth grade or higher are eligible to
begin participating in Miller Park Zoo's Junior Zookeeper program
this summer. Junior zookeepers, known as JZKs, have the opportunity
to take an active role in the operations of Miller Park Zoo, working
with people and animals. Students begin with classroom training and
eventually become volunteers. JZKs develop leadership and
time-management skills while learning about the way a zoo works.
To receive an application, students and at least one of their
parents or guardians must attend an informational meeting on March
5, 6 or 8 from 7 to 8 p.m. at Miller Park Zoo. Reservations are not
necessary. There is a registration fee for this program.
Contact Shannon Reedy at 309-434-2256 or
sreedy@cityblm.org if you
have any questions, or visit
