Potter Park Zoo Plans Zoo Nights for Those 21 and Over

Because who doesn’t want to sit back and have a beer with a spider monkey.
OK… not really. But ‘Zoo Nights’ at Potter Park Zoo in 2023 promises to be a good time for grown-ups to enjoy friends, fun and a few adult drinks without the kids around. According to the zoo’s Facebook page, this will be the fourth episode of Zoo Nights.
