Zoo Discounts Program Renewed p h lo t o g r a p h y by BiIra n d y K a y r a k ia n - R o w e The Oregon Zoo’s popular Second Tuesdays program, which offers visitors a chance to see the zoo for the reduced price of $4 per person on the second Tuesday of each month, will continue thanks to a renewed sponsorship by the Walmart Foundation. “Thanks to W almart’s continued support, more of our community can enjoy the zoo and learn about wildlife conservation,” said Kim Smith, zoo director. “It’s a tough economy, and we don’t want the price of admission to be a barrier for T erry F amily anyone.” “Second Tuesdays in the summertime are often our busiest days of the year,” Smith said. “We highly encourage visitors to use public trans portation. You’ll avoid the heavy traffic, you w on’t have to worry about parking, and you’ll save even more on the price of admission.” Visitors who ride MAX or the bus to the zoo receive $ 1.50 off admission and also avoid the $4 per vehicle parking fee. Discounts require proof of ridership. 2337 N.
