Zoo Quest looking good at Fall Festival

      Zoo Crew did great in their first public event at the Fruita Fall Festival, Saturday, Sept. 29.
    Our first-time ever entry won 3rd place in the annual Bed Race
The same bed frame became our "Parrot-osauras" float down Main Street. The float was awesome with Girl Scouts maraching along side it, and Alicia wearing Amora, the red-tailed boa snake.
     Then the booths! Seven hundred plus people went through the Grand Valley Zoological petting zoo. That was great.
    We heard good comments, good ideas, and lots of good luck wishes in our QUEST to build a zoo in Fruita.

Join us two more times in October:

    This Saturday, Oct. 6, come to the BOO IN THE ZOO II at Dinosaur Journey from 10 to 3 p.m.
     Come in costume if you like. The kid in all of us likes "creepy, crawly things and other surprises."


     October 20th, come to Kokopelli Plaza to enjoy ZOO-BELIEVE.
     We are planning a car show, music, vendors and the Plaza businesses. All will be open for your pleasure: The Feedlot, Kokopelli Animal Clinic, Pableo's pizza, Rib City, Entrom's candies, and other businesses during that block party, 11-4.
This will be the last event for the petting zoo before they go inside for the winter.
When we get the ZOOlogical center built (with community support), you can visit the exotic birds, reptiles, other creatures all year long!
See you there!
