happeninginEvents The Clock Tower


Norristown, PA - The old days of looking for the Kodak Photo Spot might be termed differently now, but having a set point to meet, gather or take pho- tos at a destination or venue have come right on time to Elmwood Park Zoo with the addition of their Clock Tower. The Clock Tower is set along a deco- rative new pathway and entranceway to Canopy Gardens - the Zoo’s largest event space. Like all events held by Elmwood Park Zoo, funds raised directly benefit the Zoo’s growth, animals care, and facility improvements. Learn more at www.epz95.com


Think Tank Talk


Doylestown, PA - "I started out stating that I was not a teacher… and I am not; maybe a mentor though.” Stepping in for hospitality industry leader, David Jackson of the Pocono Mountains CVB, “I shared my experience from years of being in the industry with an undergrad communications class at Delaware Valley University (better known as DelVal). Bringing my ‘Think Tank Talk’ event to the students was a treat for me, and what I gained most from it is that the students (generally around age 25) really wanted to build relationships, which I always say is the core of the hospitality industry. Looking forward to future 'Think Tank Talk' ses- sions.”

Park Zoo at Bluestone

Blue Bell, PA - Elmwood Park Zoo’s Golfing fore Conservation at Bluestone Country Club was not your average outing - although if you are familiar with the Zoo, you know everything they do is a little more wild! Golfing fore Conservation was the Zoo’s fourth “95th Celebration Event” of the year (one being a black-tie gala, also at Bluestone) and hosted nearly 100 golfers, in addition to bison, bald eagles, and yes - even giraffe! Hole contests and enhancements like Brooklyn Brewery, Tito’s Handmade Vodka, and “Show Us Your Tots” food cart, ensured that no player went hungry or thirsty, while a golf ball gun, trivia wheels, animal fact stations, and animal meet and greets brought the Zoo’s award-winning education programs out onto the course.
