SUMMARY:Paint Rocks for the Penguins
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a rock-painting party! Did you know that penguins use rocks for courtship\, building nests\, and even protection for their eggs? A male penguin may search hours to find the perfect stone to present to a female. On Sunday\, April 19\, guests can gather near Helzberg Penguin Plaza to paint pebbles for the penguins in our care. \nThe fun begins at 10 am and will last until 3 pm or we run out of rocks (the penguins can only use a limited number so one rock per person\, please!) The decorated pebbles will be given to the penguins the following weekend for a World Penguin Day celebration on Saturday\, April 25. \nActivities are included in the price of Zoo admission or membership.
