My family enjoyed the "Pancakes, Paws and Santa Claus" event last year, but this year's scaled down version was horrible. The event was moved from the large African Outpost facility to the Gheen's Room, a much smaller venue. We were cramped and hot. Last year's event had a nice breakfast and lots of activities. This year we had 1 plain doughnut and cocoa, juice or water. The Juice and bottled water (donated by Coca Cola) were served warm. No ice/ No refrigeration. The crafts and activities we enjoyed last year were axed this year. My wife, myself and our three year old attended. It cost us thirty dollars all together. This is with our zoo members' discount. My three-year-old was charged full price to get in. Big rip-off and huge disappointment. Next year we're looking for somewhere else to go. “Cookies with Santa” was a horrible let-down.
