• Lake Evinrude Deck – “The Hop-to-It Bunny Scavenger Hunt” – 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
  Calling all “egg-straordinary” kids 8 and under to hop to it, and search for brightly colored Easter eggs. Redeem the eggs for sweet treats!

  Hip, Hop, Hurrah! Meet at the Northwestern Mutual Family Farm, along with the master of ceremonies, the Easter Bunny, and march through the park! You’ll conclude at the Peck Welcome Center for a chance to win special prize giveaways.
• Throughout the Zoo
  Be on the lookout for our animals to take part in Easter festivities, as they receive special
  Easter-related enrichment items in their habitats. Enrichment activities keep the
  animals active and healthy, allowing them to demonstrate behaviors similar to those they would in the wild. Among the animals receiving these special treats are tigers, elephants and gorillas.
• All Aboard for a “Train Teaser!”
  Hop on our North Shore Bank Safari Train to test your skills counting Easter eggs hidden on the wooded and winding route around the Zoo.

Zoo admission is $11.75 for adults, $8.75 for children (3 to 12 years), free for children 2 and under, and $10.25 for senior citizens (60 and older). Milwaukee County residents with I.D. receive $1.75 off regular Zoo admission. Parking is $12. Zoological Society membership is valid.
