The annual Sleepover program offered by the Park officially starts in March, and this weekend is Family Night, for ages 4 and up. Families camp near Kilima Point, overlooking the expanse and exotic residents of the Africa Field Exhibit. The night starts at 4pm and goes until 10am the next morning. Included in the price are your tent, camp chairs and lanterns, dinner, a campfire snack, and breakfast. There are also nighttime walks to visit the elephants, animal presentations, visits to the Lion Camp, the Gorillas and more. Several different levels of tents are available to fit your camping style, ranging from the Premium that comes complete with a stocked mini fridge, Queen sized bed, heater and fan to the Classic, which is pretty much just a

9 x 14 tent with some chairs. If this weekend doesn’t work for your social calendar, then check the Parks schedule, which also includes special nights for young adults, ages 8 and up, Girl Scouts and the 21 and over crowd. Such an adventure will not be soon forgotten, so roll up the sleeping bag, make those reservations, and hit the open road. You may have been to the Wild Animal Park before, but have you spent the night?
