WALLABY PAVILION: Located in the heart of the Zoo and is surrounded by exhibits such as alligators, emu, alpaca, primates and wallabies. The centralized location of this area and small covered pavilion make it perfect for any occasion with up to 600 people.

MEMORIAL GARDEN: Is a more romantic wooded area suited well for receptions.

SHORELINE: Borders the river and is found directly south of Memorial Garden and can be combined with the Garden to increase capacity, or stand-alone as a wide open space configurable for many different events. Both locations separately can accommodate around 200 to 300 guests.

GREAT ROOM:  Our indoor space located behind the museum.  The Great Room has around 6,400 square feet of space, including 26 foot ceilings and a dance floor. The Great room can be configured to seat up to 400 guest banquet style and 200 conference style.
