“Drive By, Wave Hi!” Donation Parade at the Zoo

In an effort to raise much-needed funds, and also engage the community, the Santa Barbara Zoo will host a “Drive By, Wave Hi!” donation parade on Saturday, April 25 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm.

Dress up in animal costumes, decorate your car, drive around the Zoo's parking lot, and drop a donation of any amount as you drive by. Even though the public can't visit the animals quite yet, they can still support the Zoo – without even leaving the car!

Please note: the Zoo is not open to the public at this time. For the health of the staff and animals, all participants will be asked to stay in their cars at all times and will not be admitted inside of the Zoo.

Face coverings are strongly encouraged any time your car window is open.
