2024 EVENT
Tricounty invites our members to join us for Member Appreciation Day at the Ft. Wayne Children's Zoo (3411 Sherman Blvd, Fort Wayne, IN 46808) on Saturday, August 3, 2024. Travel to this 40-acre Zoo with over 1,000 animals with your co-op!
FROM HUMBLE NATURE PRESERVE TO THE "NATION'S BEST CHILDREN'S ZOO." At the Fort Wayne Children's Zoo, kids can get nose to nose with a goat, families can explore a misty jungle trail, and giraffes roam a vast grassy hillside. The Zoo is internationally recognized for its innovative displays, award-winning animal exhibits, and well-manicured grounds.
All Tricounty members and their immediate family living in the household will be provided a free ticket for entry, unlimited rides, soft drinks, and ice cream*. A meal will not be provided. However, concessions will be available for purchase.
Visit the Tricounty Rural Electric registration table outside the entry gate between 4 pm and 8 pm on August 3 to pick up your entry ticket and wristbands. Only Tricounty REC members and their immediate family living in the home will be eligible for a free ticket. Additional tickets are available for $25 and can be purchased while RSVPing. (members will be charged on their next bill)
The Zoo will be open until 6 pm to the general public and becomes an exclusive event for cooperative members. *The unlimited soft drinks and ice cream will be available after 5 pm. Please enjoy the day however you wish, exploring, relaxing, visiting, shopping, and enjoying the rides and exhibits, a one-of-a-kind destination.
Since this event will be in lieu of the customary annual meeting, we hope you will work some time into your day to meet with your cooperative board of trustees and staff. We'd love the opportunity to say thank you to our members for your support and answer any questions you may have about your cooperative.
