International Polar Bear Day

INTERNATIONAL POLAR BEAR DAY!
 

Attention all polar bear lovers!  Come make a SPLASH for polar bears on International Polar Bear Day!

Join the Alaska Zoo, Alaska Aces, and H2Oasis for a wet and wild event dedicated to celebrating polar bears!

The event will be held at H2Oasis Indoor Waterpark on Monday, February 27th, 2012 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

The Alaska Aces and Alaska Zoo staff will be splashing around for the great white bear in the lazy river, wave pool, water drop fountain, Master Blaster, and much, much, more! Make sure not to miss this chance to swim like a polar bear and meet your favorite Alaska Aces player!

There will be door prizes and hand-out items so make sure to come early and bring your friends. You'll know all about polar bears by the time your family is done swimming like one!

Regular H2Oasis admission fees apply, but 50% of the admission rates will be donated to the Alaska Zoo by H2Oasis to help the Alaska Zoo fund future capital projects like the new Arctic Complex! This complex means new exhibits for some of our favorite species like the polar bears, muskoxen, arctic fox and moose! (Please remember that H2Oasis only accepts cash or check, but does have a free ATM onsite).

For more information please contact Stephanie Hartman, Education Director, at slhartman@alaskazoo.org or call (907)346-2858.

Don't forget to tell your friends! You can even share this event flyer with them (PDF)!

Contributing partners for this event include the Alaska Zoo, Alaska Aces, H2Oasis, Alaska Geographic, Polar Bears International and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
