Students currently in fifth grade or higher are eligible to begin participation in Miller Park Zoo’s Junior Zookeeper (JZK) program this summer.
The JZK program is great for students who are looking for experience working with people, learning leadership and time-management skills, and spending some quality time with animals. Beginner JZKs attend a one-week summer camp; camp sessions are held throughout the summer.
To receive an application, students and one of their parents/guardians must attend one of the three identical informational meetings to be held on March 4, 5 & 6 from 6:30 PM – 7:30 PM at the Miller Park Pavilion. Pick the meeting date that best fits your schedule; no reservation is required. The doors will close, and no one may enter after 6:35 PM.
The Miller Park Pavilion is located inside Miller Park at 1122 S. Morris Ave., Bloomington
Illinois.
