Boo At The Zoo Flier

Children ages 17 and younger and CALM members will be admitted free.

But guests of all ages are encouraged to join in the fun and wear costumes to this safe, child-friendly way of trick-or-treating.

Come as a ghost, goblin or other costume-clad character to see CALM’s animals, and the natural gardens, just as the foliage is beginning to turn.

Bewitching games, crafts, a food and beverage booth and treats are part of the fun.

The always popular wildlife presentations and animal encounters will provide even more entertainment.

Rides on the Central California Children’s Railroad are only $1. The same is true for the Bounce House.

CALM is located at 10500 Alfred Harrell Highway, between Lake Ming and Hart Park in northeast Bakersfield.
