North Shore Bank and the NEW Zoo will kick off the 2016 Zoo Boo with a half-price ticket “flash sale” next Wednesday, October 5. Tickets will be available at all of our branches for $4 apiece between 2 and 5 p.m. that day. A kickoff event at our Howard-Suamico branch will also include free pumpkins for the first 100 guests, a visit from the NEW Zoo’s Zoomobile, treats, and more.

The Zoo Boo will be held from 3 to 8 p.m. on October 14 and 15, 21 and 22, and 28 and 29. For the Zoo Boo, the zoo will be filled with festive Halloween decorations, giant inflatables, a children’s maze, live swamp monsters, and — for the brave — a horse-drawn, haunted wagon ride through a “Freaky Forest” during the first two weekends of the event.
