[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, many years ago, my friend just invited everyone at a certain date and time, and we had a lovely day at the Zoo.

That's how most people do it: the majority of local residents cannot afford a pricey Zoo party! Also, FONZ does not exist anymore, and if I recall the parties were organized by FONZ - so you might not see them again for some time.[/quote]

I went to a couple of unsanctioned parties and it was fun!

They new zoo mentality is that they are only for the rich, because they got rid of FONZ and affordable and beneficial memberships. [/quote]

Yes, the free zoo that has never charged admission clearly has the attitude that they are only for the rich.  (BTW, they still have memberships, and the reason they got rid of FONZ was related to the pandemic and their funding arrangement.)[/quote]

Fonz used to offer the unlimited parking benefit at around $90 to $100 a year.

Unlimited parking benefits now will cost you $1000 a year.

This is their lowest cost membership and the benefits are paltry.

Standard Membership $74
Members at this level get:
