Sunshine Symphony at the Zoo Saturday, June 21 Join us in bringing musical enrichment to the animals! Celebrate the summer solstice at the zoo with performances from local choirs, children’s bands, and dance groups. Enjoy a day of harmony with nature and music! 1180 N. Randall Rd. | West Dundee A Facility of Dundee Township Park District Hours: March 29-Nov 2: 9:00 am-5:00 pm Animals and plants thrive together in perfect harmony. Birds, bats, butterflies, and bees transport pollen from plant to plant, enabling the production of seeds. This ancient partnership is vital for human food security and the well-being of all living things. Pollinators are key to maintaining healthy ecosystems that benefit us all. Come taste local honey, play fun pollinator-themed games, make creative headbands, and take home native wildflower seeds. Join us for a day of pollinator fun! Nutty for Nocturnals Friday, August 8 • 5:00 pm-8:00 pm The Zoo will be open until 8:00 pm! Enjoy special zookeeper chats and learn about the zoo’s nocturnal animals.
