Host Needed for Doo the Zoo!

Lanny and Donna have been rained out on the Tuesday bike rides so often this winter that they are desperately seeking new experiences....
Behold:
HOST NEEDED!

At the Dec FUNBUZZ, I asked about interest in
tours of the Crowley Sugar Mill & Falcon Dam; lots of you were interested.
I will have info & sign-ups for those tours in the next few days.
I was also asked about the possibility of a behind-the-scenes
tour of Gladys Porter Zoo in Brownsville – yes they do offer them!
Since Donna & I will be out of the park the second half of Feb & most of March,
this tour needs a host to see it thru.
Here are the particulars.
Whomsoever is willing to tie up the loose ends for the zoo tour
should coordinate with “H-less” Jon.

Minimum group size:
10 persons @ $15.00 each (a bargain – regular admission is $9.00 adult & $8.00 geezer).

Tour length: 1 ½ - 2 hours – group can stay on & visit zoo thereafter.

When: Weekdays preferred.

What you see:
Guided tour of the inner workings of a zoo including
the animal clinic,
Animal kitchen & much more.

Lead time: 2 weeks advance request.

Deposit required:

$100 deposit, applied to the admittance charges (credit card by phone OK).

Group tour coordinator:

Vanessa Trevino, 956.554.5618.

Doo the zoo, y’all!

Thanks, Lanny & Donna # 16.

I have volunteered to take the lead for this trip. I am working with Jon to get a date set. We're going to try to set this for sometime in early February, before the Olympics! We'll get sign-up sheets out soon. Watch for them.
