Photo Sleepover

At the Wild Animal Park

Sundays, September 7 and 14

Ages 16 and over

Here's an opportunity for photo buffs to take pictures at the Wild Animal Park with Ron Garrison, retired Zoological Society of San Diego award-winning staff photographer. (Speaker subject to change without notice.) Photo Sleepover features close-up animal encounters, a unique nighttime experience at Lion Camp, and other behind-the-scenes opportunities at the Wild Animal Park! The evening includes a talk by Ron, who will share some of the secrets of his craft and give a practical demonstration. You will visit several major areas of the Park, where photographers will have the opportunity to take pictures in a relaxed, non-crowded environment.

Dinner and next-day breakfast are included. Spacious tents are provided in our campground near the Park’s East Africa field exhibit.
