Randall Oaks Zoo celebrates 60 years of animals and wonder
Randall Oaks Zoo is celebrating its 60th anniversary, commemorating six decades of conservation, education, and unforgettable family fun.
Since opening its gates in 1964, Randall Oaks Zoo has been a cherished destination for animal enthusiasts of all ages. This milestone anniversary underscores the commitment to wildlife conservation and a celebration you will want to attend.
On Friday, Aug. 16, we invite the community to join us for a day filled with special activities, animal encounters, and anniversary giveaway items.
Visitors will enjoy making toys and treats for the animals, with enrichment gifts for purchase, and watching the animals eat and play with watermelons. Additional animal encounters with a zookeeper will be available throughout the day. Spend the day with us all while learning about the incredible animals that call Randall Oaks Zoo home.
This anniversary celebration is our way of saying thank you to the community that has supported us over the decades. We wouldn’t be where we are today without the dedication of our staff and the countless visitors who have made Randall Oaks Zoo a part of their lives. Thank you for 60 years of support. Here’s to the next 60 years of wildlife, wonder, and making memories together!
The zoo celebration will be 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 16, at the zoo, 1180 N. Randall Rd., West Dundee.
