ZOOREACH SCHOLARSHIP GUIDELINES
2006-2007

The ZooReach Scholarship is available for Arizona Department of Education designated Title One schools grades K-12 that have 50% or more of their enrollment on a free or reduced lunch program.

Zoo Field Trips
• Your school group is welcome to enjoy a day at the Zoo anytime for a reduced rate. The ZooReach Scholarship provides a $1 discount off the already discounted school/youth group rate. When you make a reservation, you will be quoted a rate of $3/person (including chaperones, teachers and/or parents) for a minimum group size of at least 15.
• Discounted rate is available for multiple trips, different teachers, or classes.
• Call 602-273-1341 ext. 7897 for a Field Trip General Admission Form.

Each qualifying ZooReach School is also eligible to receive either of the following programs for their school each year until funds are exhausted. Call 602-914-4333 beginning July 1st, 2006 for reservations.

ZooReach Outreach
Let us bring the Zoo to You!
• A one hour paid presentation at your school for a group of 75 people.
• ZooReach Outreach programs can be booked on Mondays or Tuesdays throughout the year.
• Additional consecutive presentations can be scheduled at a cost of $150 for each additional hour.
• Estimated Value of scholarship: $180.00 - $200.00
• Note: If your school is located outside the Phoenix Metropolitan area, call our ZooMobile office at 602-914-4329 to see if we are coming to your area this year.


ZooReach Night Camp
Attendance Rules
• A minimum of 25 campers (children & chaperones) is required to hold a camp.
• ZooReach Scholarships provide funds for 36 children and 4 adults to attend Night Camp, including a pizza dinner. The scholarship also includes up to 36 t-shirts for the students attending the camp (adult shirts are not included but can be purchased).
• ZooReach Night Camps can be scheduled for any night from July 1, 2006 – January 31, 2007.
• Final numbers need to be submitted 14 days prior to your arrival. You are responsible for the total number you have reserved – there are no refunds for no-shows!!
• IMPORTANT: If less than 14 days notice is given for a cancellation, or if your group arrives for Night Camp with less than the 25 person minimum, your school will not be permitted to reschedule using scholarship funds this year nor will it be permitted to participate in the ZooReach Scholarship next year. Night Camp has arranged for food and instructors for the number of people reserved so the ZooReach Scholarship program is still charged for these no-shows, and funds are limited.
Additional Campers
• If you wish to have additional campers, the costs are as follows:
Students $40.00
Adults $45.00 (Or one free adult chaperone with every 10 paying children)
Pizza $5.00/person
T-shirts $12.00/person
• The balance for extra campers must be paid 14 days prior to your camp date.
• Estimated value of scholarship: $2,072.00

Please call 602-914-4333 for any questions or to make a reservation.
