Pirates Ahoy!

Party with the pirates at
Louisville Zoo’s June 20th beach party

Your little buccaneers can party with the pirates at Louisville Zoo’s Calistoga Splash Park at Glacier Run on June 20 from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. as National City presents Family Twilight Beach Party: Pirates Ahoy! Admission is just $5 after 5 p.m. and Zoo Members enter free as a benefit of their membership. (Zoo exhibits are open until 9 p.m.)

There will be cool music and games, plus prizes and giveaways. Kids are sure to enjoy a Zoo “treasure hunt” that can be redeemed for a prize. And they won’t want to miss the chance to play zany games like Pirate Plunge, Leaping Lobsters and ARRRGument. This is one party we’re sure you’ll want to crash!

Be sure to look for the next National City Family Twilight Beach Party at the Zoo on Aug. 8 featuring SpongeBob SquarePants. For more information on other upcoming Zoo events, visit http://www.louisvillezoo.org/events/.
