Wildlife Safari Plans Family Friendly Fall Festival Winston, Oregon

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
10/06/2016
Wildlife Safari Plans Family Friendly Fall Festival
Winston, Oregon

For ten years, Wildlife Safari in Winston has been providing families and children in Douglas County and from around the state a safe and “less-scary” alternative to typical Halloween celebrations in the form of the Wildlife Safari Harvest Zoobilee.

“And this year will be no exception,” says Jacob Schlueter, the Safari’s marketing director, “before we even hit October, we had businesses and community organizations breaking down the gates for a chance to provide games, activities, face painting and candy & other treats to trick-or-treaters for that special night.”

Officials said that providing a safe, boo-less and fun night for children and families in the form of events like the Harvest Zoobilee is the fabric of what makes Wildlife Safari so special.

“So many events around Halloween time are so scary” explains Dan Van Slyke, executive director for the Wildlife Safari, “what we want to create is a totally distinctive experience for the little ones. We offer a safe, fun and less-scary place for families and little ones and that makes our events totally unique.”

This year’s Wildlife Safari Harvest Zoobilee will be held on October 29th from 5:00-8:00pm. The price of admission is just $5 or $4 with a canned food donation to support the good work of the Salvation Army. Additional activities will be available for a fee based on family’s interests, but games, activities, crafts, cookies, hot chocolate and coffee are all included.

Wildlife Safari Harvest Zoobilee is presented through the generosity of community partners including Banner Bank, Cascade Community Credit Union, Hometown Drug and Lauren Young Tire Centers Les Schwab. Community businesses and organizations are encouraged to reach out to events@wildlifesafari.net if they are interested in participating in this evening of great family fun or if they would like to provide candy or treats.
