Dream Night at the Zoo....no-cost family fun!

The zoo in OKC is sponsoring a special free evening of activities for families of children with special needs next Friday, June 6th. As of today (May 30th) they still had ample tickets available.

Activity Details:

DREAMNIGHT AT THE OKC ZOO is Friday, June 6, 2008 from 4:00 until 8:00. Dinner will be served approximately 5:30 pm until 7 pm.

For the past several years, Camp Cavett has been involved with a very special "DREAMNIGHT" at the Oklahoma City Zoo. Each person (including babies) in your party will need a ticket for admission. Tickets will be scanned at the entrance; therefore no photo copied tickets will be permitted. Also, if you receive
tickets and decide not to attend, please get the tickets back to us so that another family can attend. Only so many tickets were printed..... ...it would be a shame for us NOT to pack the zoo on June 6. PLEASE take only the amount of tickets that you need for your immediate family.

This evening is a private affair for children with disabilities and special health care needs and their families.

If you are reading this note and you would like to attend DREAMNIGHT, please do one of the following to obtain *tickets:

1) E-mail the name of the child with special needs (baby to 18), the mailing address where tickets need to be mailed, and the total number of tickets needed (including child) to belinda.anderson2@hcahealthcare.com

OR

2) Call Belinda at 405-271-2271. Give Belinda the name of the child with special needs (baby to 18), the mailing address where tickets need to be mailed, and the total number of tickets needed (including child).

DREAMNIGHT at the Zoo Description and History....

Dreamnight at the Zoo is a special event that invites children with special healthcare needs and disabilities along with their families to spend a cost
free evening at their local zoo.

The goal of the Oklahoma City Zoo is to create an environment in which these children and their families would enjoy a private evening at the Zoo that
includes complimentary Zoo admission, dinner, snacks, entertainment and unique zoo experiences for all involved.

Started in 1996 by the Rotterdam Zoo, Netherlands, Dreamnight is an international event that is now hosted on the first Friday in June by 80 zoos and aquariums worldwide. The Oklahoma City Zoo held its first Dreamnight event on June 3, 2005 and over 1,800 visitors enjoyed the festivities.
