We're going full steam ahead!
Thanks to wonderful backers like you, the Biblical Zoo in Jerusalem raised over $6,000 USD in a wonderfully successful GlobalGiving campaign. Thank you for supporting us in bringing the Sea Israel Aquarium to life. Because of your help, we are now taking the Aquarium project from development to construction. It's on!
And here's some more good news:
We’ve already begun aquarium staff training at the Zoo’s existing Wet Side Story exhibit so that once our magnificent aquarium animals arrive, they will be sure to receive the very best care and attention.
Our Education Department has already started education program development for young and old – every Aquarium visitor will leave having learned something about the importance of saving our oceans, lakes and rivers (even if they didn't mean to!).
Keep your eye on the prize –
We aim to open the doors to the Sea Israel Aquarium in 2015. We'll be sure to keep you posted on our progress, so you’re always aware of what’s happening at every stage.
Again, thanks so much for being a part of this project’s success. We are all so excited to bring such a great facility into being and – more importantly – to inspire our visitors to value the enviroment. A significant part of that success will belong to people like you, who believed in this cause from the beginning.
Warm Regards,
The Zoo and Aquarium Team
