    What is everyone's experience with their local Zoo in regard to Extending Memberships for the time the Zoo was in Shutdown?

    Has anyone come across a Zoo that is not offering an extension?

    Thank you for any feedback, will save me from having to go to every North American Zoo website.

    Although not my local zoo, since I live in LA and go down to San Diego, SD Zoo they did offer me a renewal of my pass in late May to have an additional 2 months added on the back end. Renewed my pass and now is good until the last day of August of 2021. I get to go to a fantastic zoo and safari park although at a hefty price tag and they officially open this Saturday :)

    I am a member of three zoos. Phoenix Zoo sent an email extending my membership through end of the year (it was due to expire this month). Reid Park Zoo and Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum I have not heard from. However I had recently renewed Reid Park well ahead of its due date in order to change the status.

    I've let all of my memberships expire over the past year (well before our pandemic began), but kept the Denver Zoo one. They added on a couple months for the time they were closed too.
