When our family of four was planning a trip to the zoo in July '08, we went on the website to look up info about it and found out that for a little more than what we would be spending on a one-time admission we could purchase a family pass that would be good for an entire year! And not only did the pass give us unlimited access to the zoo, we could also use it to get in at 3 aquariums and a couple of museums as well!! And that was just in our state! The pass could actually be used throughout the country at various places for either free or a discounted admission.
Although the pass paid for itself with the first use, we have since visited the zoo on 3 other occasions and also went to 2 of the aquariums. You'd be surprised to learn that a lot of places have monthly events that take place (i.e. "Boo at the Zoo" for Halloween) and not only are you getting out of the house and spending quality time with your family, you're kids are in a learning environment AND it's a little extra exercise to boot! Who could ask for more right?
I could go on and on about how wonderful family passes are but I'm sure you'd just like to see for yourself! LOL For anyone that's in NC, here's the link to the
Asheboro Zoo and if anyone has any questions they'd like to ask feel free!!
