EVENT DETAILS
Kohl’s Wild Theater will perform at Cedarburg Public Library. Check out their
performance at 11:00 AM.
SYNOPSIS
Solitary student Skylar Schultz is on a school trip to the Zoo. After a
mysterious encounter with a wise river turtle, Skylar is transformed into a
Humboldt penguin, a zebra and a river otter. Skylar learns that in order to
return to human form, one must “wade with the waddle,” “doze with the dazzle”
and “roll with the romp.” With the help of some colorful animals and a caring
zookeeper, Skylar learns to overcome a fear of interacting with others. This
interactive musical meets social-emotional learning standards by exploring the
connections between young people, zookeepers and animals. Most appropriate for
grades K-5th.

EVENT DETAILS
Sponsored by
Hop on in to the Zoo and enjoy an Easter-themed day. Start by getting into the
spirit by putting on bunny ears, and then wiggle your nose and smile at one of
the spring selfie stations. As you’re watching the animals in their habitats,
take a look to see if they’re enjoying an egg-shaped treat. Zoo Pride volunteers
make dozens of paper-mâché eggs so zookeepers can fill them with fun treats for
the animals. It’s a great enrichment item for the animals, and it’s fun to watch
them rip the “eggs” apart. While you’re watching the real animals, be on the
lookout for the Easter Bunny making its rounds around the Zoo.
Egg Day admission is free for Zoo Pass and Platypus Circle members.
Please check milwaukeezoo.org for more information as event details unfold.

EVENT DETAILS
Waddle you do during this event? Learn about the penguins of course. The
Milwaukee County Zoo has three species of penguins. The Humboldt penguins are
the most visible and live near the U.S. Bank Gathering Place, and the Gentoo and
rockhoppers live in the same habitat inside the Herb & Nada Mahler Family
Aviary. During World Penguin Day you can learn about the adaptations that make
penguins so “cool,” like how their layer of fat keeps them warm, how their black
and white color protects them or why their body shape helps them fly under
water. But don’t let us “blubber” on about these awesome animals. See for
yourself!
Stop by Guest Services in the U.S. Bank Gathering Place to sponsor your favorite
penguin!
Admission for World Penguin Day is free for Zoo Pass and Platypus Circle
members.

OUR CONSERVATION EFFORTS
We’re working to build a better world for all living things. At the Zoological
Society of Milwaukee, we create and participate in conservation initiatives that
work to address the conservation of endangered species in the wild and those
breeding in human care. We invest in conservation education, monitor high-risk
species, and focus on preserving natural and zoo habitats.
Every Zoo Pass you purchase, class you attend, and program you participate in
brings us another step closer to our conservation goals. Together, we can make a
difference!

SUPPORTING THE ZOO
What began as an informal group of community leaders dedicated to raising funds
for and bringing animals to the Zoo in 1910 has grown into a full non-profit
organization now dedicated to conservation and education while continuing our
original mission to support the Milwaukee County Zoo. Together with the Zoo, we
work to drive attendance; enhance awareness; and build functional, safe and
natural habitats for the Zoo’s incredible animals. We also work to raise funds
to cover the cost of creating and maintaining educational and innovative
programs for the community and to fund several of the Zoo’s wildlife research
and conservation projects.
How We Help the Zoo
HELP THE SOCIETY
Join us in working to conserve wildlife, endangered species, and the
