I absolutely love Heritage Park. Totally worth a visit. I also like to chat with the folks who work at the different buildings as you can feel their pride on the work that they do.
Calgary Zoo – ONLINE auction goes LIVE!
August 21st, 2010 · No Comments
I received the following note from the Calgary Zoo today:
Hello Zoo friends and family,
I need your assistance !!
I am sending out this message far and wide to tell everyone about the Calgary Zoo’s –ONLINE Zoogala Auction. This auction is open to everyone (Zoo staff and volunteers too) and it is LIVE NOW. This is our 2nd Annual ONLINE auction and has great items for everyone. Everything from Kamala art, Zoo experiences, a gorilla knuckleprint, hotel accommodations, books, jewelry and even a trip for 2 to drive NASCAR !. The total value of our auction items is more than $10,000 .
100% of monies collected from this auction go directly to the Calgary Zoo (and yes, we are a charitable organization !!) Last year we raised approx $7,000 from one avenue and we hope to do even better this year.
Please take the time to check out this website and please forward this message to friends and family of your own. 99% of our bidders last year were from Zoo friends and family and so on. If everyone who gets this message sends to only 5 people we can connect with so many new people!!
Direct Auction Website: www.realauction.ca/zoogala2010
Or via Calgary Zoo website: www.calgaryzoo.com – look to the front page of the website for a link to the auction
Thanks again for your support !! Now lets get bidding !!

A friend of mine told me that this looks like one of those Microsoft Windows backgrounds. It was a beautiful day.
Good place for a walk if you need some exercise.
