Senior Day at the Detroit Zoo
Twice a year the Detroit Zoo opens its doors to Senior Citizens and allows them to come explore the wonderful exhibits for FREE. They put on this event with sponsoring agencies to allow many Senior Citizens who could not afford to visit the Detroit Zoo a chance to come out and spend the day. They also provide special entertainment and events for them to make the day even more enjoyable. The best part is they can be accompanied by a caregiver who will be admitted free also. The fall event looks to be just as exciting as other events with a fantastic day planned already. Find out more information below.
