Overnights

Spend the night at the Zoo!

Come see the Zoo in a different light ...or no light at all!

The fun begins at 7:00 pm and ends the following morning at 9:00 am. Included in all of our overnights is the NightCrawlers Hike, a chance to hear the sounds and see the sights of the Zoo at night. We also provide the opportunity for close encounters with a variety of small critter encounter animals. Zoo games and crafts are also possible. Usually lights-out occurs between 11:30 pm and midnight.

The fee is $350 for a minimum of 12.  If your group is larger than 12, add $25 per person. This includes pizza and lemonade, and a continental breakfast in the morning.

A $50 non-refundable deposit is required to hold your date. The balance is due the night of the overnight. Overnights are held throughout the year on Friday and Saturday nights, but some topics are only available seasonally.

Bring a sleeping bag , a flashlight, toothpaste, and a toothbrush. We'll create an evening for you to remember!

Are you a Scout or 4-H Group? Let us help you work on a badge during your overnight!

Scout leaders may identify the Badges or Try-Its the girls or boys are working on, and we will build the evening's activities around those requirements.

We are "specialists" in many Scout and 4-H badges:

Give Mimi a call at 475-6741 or e-mail her at mwickless@lincolnzoo.org to select a date, name a badge, and make a reservation.
