“This event includes things you don’t see when you’re out and about at the zoo with kids,” said Johansen. “It showcases an overall understanding of what the Great Plains Zoo and the Butterfly House & Aquarium offer, and what they mean to the community.” On June 27, guests can roam the zoo while indulging in food, drinks, educational panels, meet and greets, and fundraising efforts. “Zoofari is a chance to celebrate all of the recent changes to the zoo and talk about the exciting things to come,” said Johansen. Johansen explained that for this year’s event, her team wanted to use the entire zoo campus. To achieve this experience, Zoofari is taking a step away from local food trucks and partnering with Vespa Catering . Cuisine and dessert stations will be scattered throughout the entire property, encouraging guests to wander the zoo.
