Spartan Day of Service-Potter Park Zoo

Project Description

Boo at the Zoo is Potter Park Zoo's annual, fun-filled family event with fall-themed activities, bounce-houses, apple cider and donuts and more. They need the help of a lot of volunteers each day to make this zoo fundraising event a success by helping with games, passing out candy, or helping at cider and donuts stations. This event helps them advance their mission of "inspiring the conservation of animals and the natural world."
