POCATELLO — Explore Zoo Idaho this summer through the Marshall Public Library’s Arts and Community Tickets program.

Thanks to funding from the Friends of Marshall Public Library, family passes to Zoo Idaho will be available for checkout beginning March 30. Two passes will be available each week through Aug. 31. Each pass covers admission for two adults and up to five children. Passes cover general admission and do not include special events.

Zoo Idaho is a new addition to the Library’s ACT program, which offers community members an opportunity to experience local arts, culture and recreation, and in this case, check out all the animals!

“We’re delighted to partner with Zoo Idaho for the ACT program,” said Public Services Supervisor Amy Azzouzat. “This is a great way to connect our community with everything the zoo has to offer.”

“The ACT Program is one of the many great programs at Marshall Public Library,” said Zoo Idaho Manager Peter Pruett. “We’re excited to be part of ACT and give our community an opportunity to enjoy Zoo Idaho and everything it has to offer.”

Zoo Idaho is open Saturdays and Sundays in April and daily from May through Sept. 7.

Passes can be picked up at the library’s first-floor desk. Checkouts are available to Pocatello residents with an adult MPL card and are offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Limit one pass per household per season.
