      I’d love to win because I’ll be visiting Oregon from Utah for the first time! I am a huge fan of animals and would love to check out the Oregon Zoo!

  2. Emily on September 19, 2023 at 9:15 am

  7. Eva Miller on September 19, 2023 at 12:08 pm

    Tasty beer and beautiful animals, plus a chance to learn about them! And while kids are nice, it’s also nice to have adult-only spaces, especially at the zoo.

  8. Jennifer on September 19, 2023 at 12:11 pm

    Would love to have beers along side all my pdx zoo friends. Perfect date night!

    • Jamie Wilmarth on September 19, 2023 at 1:02 pm

    Would absolutely love to experience an event at the Oregon Zoo! I had plans to go to the Sisters Folk Festival next weekend but I lagged on tickets and they sold out. Would feel so lucky if I could fill my weekend with an event like this instead! Also, bats? Cool.

    I’ve been on a very intense work project for the last four months, my neighbor’s kitchen pipe cracked and made a mess in my garage and I really need a night out with my daughter. The zoo AND cider sounds like heaven!

  33. Arianne Kimberly on September 20, 2023 at 4:53 am

  44. Jennifer Lanier on September 21, 2023 at 3:31 am

    My wife & I would love to win tickets because the Zoo is an amazing resource in Portland and we go as much as we can. It’s important work to make sure we don’t lose any more species. And the elephants are boss!

  45. Suzanne on September 21, 2023 at 12:21 pm

    This would be amazing. I’ve never been to this festival or any festivals at the Zoo. Thanks for the chance to win!

    🙂

  50. Cleiton Pessoa on September 21, 2023 at 2:45 pm

    I have the perfect cider lover to take with me on this. It’d be amazing to gift him this day.

  51. Rose Wilde on September 21, 2023 at 2:47 pm

    I remember taking my son and his friends to the zoo concerts when they were free with zoo admission and membership. I remember participating in Zoo Boo during October as an actor. I loved meeting the trains in my ghoulish costume, with a mannequin arm in my basket asking the zoo patron for “arms for the poor.” I remember our zoo membership as a lifesaver when my daughter was young. Need something to do? Let’s go see the animals! I remember being interviewed by the local news during a snowstorm in the zoo parking lot. They asked why we were at the zoo in the snowstorm. We were there because the zoo was practically empty, and the animals were active and alert in the snow.

    So many great memories of our zoo. I would love to add a new memory of this fun event to my collection of zoo memories.

  52. Tiffany Davis on September 21, 2023 at 2:47 pm

    I’d love to win these tickets because Friday will my last day of the first full week of NURSING SCHOOL! 🙂
    What better way than to celebrate here!!?

  53. Samantha Schindlbeck on September 21, 2023 at 2:52 pm

    My best friend who I haven’t seen in years is finally coming to town. This would be so fun!

  69. Joseph on September 22, 2023 at 5:57 am
