Oct. 11 - 12, 18 - 19 & 25 - 26

Volunteer Shifts:

  • 10:30 a.m. - 1:15 p.m. (9 a.m. - 1:15 p.m. on Oct. 28)
  • 1 - 4:15 p.m.

You may sign up for more than one shift per day. Event occurs rain, snow or shine.

Boo at the Zoo - Ultimate Fall Fest allows guests to explore the zoo and visit their favorite animals while enjoying classic fall games, trick-or-treating and much more. Volunteers will be paired with a zoo volunteer (EdZOOcator). EdZOOcators will help to quickly address questions or concerns during the event. We need approximately 24 volunteers for each of the three shifts to comfortably staff the event and make everything run smoothly for our ghosts and goblins.

Please note that this is NOT the signup link for EdZOOcators! If you are already an EdZOO, you can choose your volunteer shift here.
