Free admission to Zoo Atlanta in mid-August
Thursday, August 7th, 2008City of Atlanta and Fulton County residents and employees get a free chance to visit the caged beasts who would like nothing more than to conquer our world on Saturday, Aug. 16 and Sunday, Aug. 17.
The city, in partnership with Zoo Atlanta, is hosting “City of Atlanta and Fulton County Family Days,” that weekend. Anyone who can prove their employment or residency in the city and county can mosey the grounds and gawk at Lun Lun, Yang Yang and Mei Lan before we have to send ‘em back to our future overlords. (I can’t find it on their site, but Atlanta Magazine’s Amanda Brown wrote a great short piece about how the cuddly creatures are on loan from a wildlife preserve in China.)
Full press release from the city, complete with details, follows after the jump.
