Annual Report - Sequoia Park Zoo
& F O U N DAT I O N 2011 Annual Report The Year In Review Mission Statement As I begin my second year as the Foundation’s president, I am pleased to be able to personally thank all of our supporters for your generous contributions to the Foundation and Zoo, a remarkable private/public partnership between the Foundation and the City of Eureka. The mission of the Sequoia Park Zoo is to connect the community with animals to inspire wonder, understanding and conservation of wildlife and the natural world. Since 1907, the City has owned the land and exhibits and funded the day-to-day operations of the Zoo, providing staffing, animal care and feeding, veterinary care, and facilities maintenance. The Foundation (a private 501(c)(3) charitable organization) was created in 2004 to provide the funding for exhibit upgrades and renovations, new exhibits, marketing and community outreach, and guest services, including the gift shop and café. The mission of the Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation is to promote and stimulate interest in the Sequoia Park Zoo and support the zoo’s development, operation and education programs through fundraising, marketing, and other initiatives designed to enhance the zoo experience. Staff A foundation is often seen as an organization that awards grants using invested endowment funds or accumulated assets. The Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation is a little different. We are the fundraising arm of the Zoo, working with individuals, businesses, foundations, and government agencies to raise the funds that provide the extra dollars needed to improve and enhance the Zoo in support of its 20-year Master Plan. The highlight of 2011 was the award of a $2.3M California Parks and Recreation grant to build a River otter, Bald eagle, salmon exhibit called Watershed Heroes. The grant application process was a great example of cooperation between the City and the Foundation: the Foundation’s Development Director and the City’s Zoo Manager and Education Coordinator jointly produced a compelling, competitive proposal – one of only three zoos and aquariums funded from over 300 total submissions. City staff and the Foundation will continue to work together to create the exhibit. The grant will be paid to the Foundation over time and is not reflected in this report. In keeping with our normal practice of the past eight years, the Foundation will present the exhibit to the City of Eureka when it is completed. Even a grant of this size, however, does not cover all the expenses associated with installing a large new exhibit, so the Foundation will continue to seek support and funding for this project as well as others. Your contributions are a vital part of our effort to sustain the Sequoia Park Zoo’s mission in our community and region. On behalf of the Foundation’s Board of Directors, I thank you for your continued support of the Zoo and the Foundation. Sincerely, 2 Chuck Dominick, Foundation Board President ZOO STAFF FOUNDATION STAFF Zoo Manager Gretchen Ziegler Director of Development & Communications Nicole Spencer Animal Care Staff Amanda Auston Camden Bruner Kelsey Kuhn Elisa Miller Nicole Nagel Natalie Parchman Lucinda Smith Janeé Thill Anders Wirth Education Staff Danza Chisholm-Sims Vanessa Halley Amber Neilson Hannah Schwend Operations Staff Kathleen Juliano Damaris McClelland Nina Nahvi Laura Turk Administrative & Events Coordinator Megan Stobb Volunteer Coordinator Sandra Sanderson Membership Assistant Rebecca Koreen Rentals Assistant Josey Bunke Café Staff Geraldine Bass, Manager Crystal Lockhart Harry Stangeland Board of Directors Chuck Dominick, President Pat Bitton, Vice President Roy Corsetti, Treasurer Christi Coffman, Secretary Linda Jo Alexander Gene Bass Pete Belak Jolene Buck Denise Davi Annette De Modena Louise Jacobson Frank Jager Naomi Johnson Jeff Lamoree Paul McGinty Donna Pace Eureka City Council Liaison Marian Brady Gift Shop Staff Arlene Ghera, Manager Joann Nord 3 Visitor Statistics 67,281 Milestones & Improvements Total 2011 Attendance 5% Percentage of paid Zoo visits from: With the recent completion of the Flamingos, Cavies & Screamers, Oh My! exhibit renovation, the Chilean flamingos are now enjoying their new and more natural habitat. Visitors can now walk directly across the exhibit, with the flamingos on one side and the Crested screamers and Patagonian cavies on the other, to reach the Aviary. This kind of mixedspecies exhibit is a fundamental part of the Zoo’s Master Plan; it allows us to create a more natural environment for the animals and use our limited space more effectively. For visitors, it’s a chance to experience how biodiverse animal communities live.

Flamingos, Cavies & Screamers, Oh My! Renovation Completed The Zoo Economic Assistance Program (ZEAP) provides Zoo access to underserved members of the community. In April, the California Department of Parks and Recreation awarded the Zoo Foundation a Nature Education Facility grant of $2.33 million to develop and build an educational exhibit entitled Watershed Heroes. This project will deliver the first elements in the Native Predators zone of the Zoo’s Master Plan and centers on charismatic wildlife of our local watershed, including River otters, salmon, and Bald eagles. There will also be an otter breeding facility, underwater salmon viewing station, and water lab classroom. This project will use a variety of cutting-edge techniques to demonstrate the need for healthy watersheds, the relationships between humans and these animals, and how each of us can be a better steward of our environment. The design phase will commence in Spring 2012. Flamingos, Cavies & Screamers, Oh My! Project Contributors BerGel Construction Ben B.

Our Red panda exhibit has been open for over a year now. Our two panda brothers Shifu and Sumo have charmed and delighted visitors and helped provide another unique experience that everyone looks forward to. This past year animal care staff learned much about the pandas’ personalities and behaviors. Shifu is quite shy, while Sumo is bolder and more active. They shun square bamboo, but relish golden and black bamboo and fresh spring grass. They produce an amazingly large volume of poop. They are shy around strangers, and their claws are razor sharp, but they will gently accept a grape tidbit from their favorite keepers. Keepers have trained them to enter a crate, stand on a scale, and even “paint!” These one-of-a-kind paw print abstracts are sold in the gift shop in support of the Zoo’s conservation programs. The pandas themselves have grown to adulthood and have learned the ins and outs of life in the redwoods: the windy weather took some getting used to, but this climate is perfect for their heavy fur coats. Thorough vet exams have found them to be in exceptionally healthy condition. Their zoo habitat is maturing too: maple trees are growing, grass and shrubs are thicker, and keepers planted two mulberry trees last winter which will one day provide more canopy climbing and resting areas, plus mulberry fruit that pandas enjoy. Not surprisingly, the timber and golden bamboo in the exhibit is nibbled on too regularly to thrive, but it gives the animals some challenging foraging activity which is good for them. Our pandas can scale up to the top of a timber bamboo stalk and back down again with ease. Red pandas are even able to rotate their ankles in such a way that allows them to climb down head-first with no problem! Next year the Species Survival Plan (SSP) coordinators for Red panda will likely recommend our boys to breed with females at other zoos, so we may see some new panda faces at Sequoia Park Zoo, and possibly even a new generation of young ones. As the pandas have settled so well in this exhibit, we plan to try mixing other compatible species with them, including a small, Asian deer species known as Reeve’s muntjac. Once people see these beautiful animals in person, many are motivated to learn more about pandas in the wild which may help this endangered species continue to survive in its native homeland in the foothills of the Himalayas. 6 Monterey Bay Aquarium had six flamingos that needed placement within a short time frame. Could we help out? Absolutely! Red Panda Review Flamingos from Monterey Bay Aquarium Accredited zoos collaborate together in many ways, and one great example of this collaboration involved Sequoia Park Zoo and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. After completing a space survey for the Flamingo SSP (Species Survival Plan), in which we indicated that our new exhibit can accommodate a larger flock, the program coordinator called with the news that Monterey had six birds in need of placement. Could we help out? Absolutely! Once transport logistics were arranged and quarantine space was readied, Zookeeper Janeé Thill traveled to Monterey and together with one of their keepers, drove the six flamingos back up the coast to their new home in Eureka. After their 30-day quarantine period, all six joined the flock and integrated immediately. These birds were hatched at San Diego Zoo and will be old enough to breed in a few years; it will be interesting to see if they pair with some of our longer-term residents. Next year the SSP would like us to return the favor by donating some of our birds to the Wildlife Safari in Oregon to help their small flock grow, as flamingos are highly social birds that do best in flocks of 20 or more. We now have 35 birds, and we have high hopes for more chicks in the summer. Weigh-To-Go! Thanks to a grant from Humboldt Area Foundation’s Animal Welfare Field of Interest program, the Zoo received funding to purchase a large animal scale and custom-built stanchion to weigh Barnyard and other zoo animals. Chris Gosney and Roger Carl from Eureka Boiler Works donated some time to make the stanchion, with design help from Zookeeper Anders Wirth and other staff. The scale was delivered in December and has performed well with the donkeys, sheep and other animals. The animals seem very comfortable standing inside, and the Weigh-To-Go! digital readout is rapid and accurate. The whole system is Project Contributors designed to be moved around easily, and is rugged enough to withstand outdoor use and unpredictable animals. Being Humboldt Area Foundation: Robert L. Richards Memorial Fund able to weigh our animals on a monthly schedule helps us Eureka Boiler Works to monitor their health and responses to diet changes and other conditions.

This program invites kids ages 8-12 to spend the night at the Zoo. Activities include a campfire, night hike and special guest appearance from one of the Zoo’s education animals. Stay tuned for more details. Coming soon: Summer Zoofari Adventures! Classes will run July 9-August 17. More information will be available in April. I love teaching classes at the zoo because I get to share my passion for biology with young minds in a fun, exciting, and interesting method. Our campers are so bright and excited to participate in the activities we worked hard to create. This is the most rewarding job I have ever had. Valerie Henderson, Zoo Education Aide Zoofari Adventures The Zoofari Adventure program provides thematic, weeklong hands-on learning adventures for youth. Through various themes, children explored the world of weird and bizarre animals, observed an animal training session with the Red pandas, and created animal- and plant-based art projects like “plant-able paper.” Zoofari Adventures provided 120 kids with a unique, animal-oriented experience in 2011. The programs were filled to capacity and, thanks to a generous grant from Humboldt Sponsors, 25 students received scholarships to attend. School Programs & Field Trips The Zoo offers a unique “outdoor classroom” for teachers to bring students on field trips. Free activities provided by the Zoo to enhance class visits include self-guided tour resources and scavenger hunts, as well as a visit to the Contact Corral and other Zoo exhibits. For a small fee, classes can also have a guided tour and a 30-minute movie. In 2011, the Zoo provided this experience to 1,385 students in grades K-6 and 420 chaperones from throughout Humboldt County. 8 In the Spring of 2011, the Zoo’s Education Department, in collaboration with the City of Eureka Stormwater Division, provided Stormwater Pollution Prevention Education presentations to 1,317 students in grades K-5 during school field trips. Each presentation lasted about 10 minutes and conformed to the California State Science teaching standards. Through the use of an interactive watershed model, students learned how trash and other pollution on our streets and driveways enter the local watersheds and drain directly into Humboldt Bay. Students gathered information about the animals, returned to the zoo to record observations, wrote reports and presented them to an audience of students and parents in front of the animals’ enclosures. It was an enriching experience for all. In June, the Zoo also celebrated World Oceans Week, sponsored by the Association of Zoos and Patti Fuentes, Washington Elementary 5th grade teacher Aquariums (AZA) in celebration of International World Oceans Day. One thousand Dr. Seuss One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish themed coloring paper crowns, pencils, erasers and other items were distributed to students from across the county. As many teachers were teaching their students about oceans in the classroom, these activities and free resources were perfect for use in the classroom and integration into the curriculum. OLLI Program In October, the Zoo hosted its first workshop in collaboration with Humboldt State University’s Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI), entitled “You & the Zoo”. The three-session program explored the history of zoos in general and Sequoia Park Zoo in particular, the role of modern zoos in society, and scenarios for the future of Sequoia Park Zoo. Participants attended lectures, a special behind-the-scenes zoo tour, an animal training demonstration, and unique animal encounters. The workshop was very well received by all participants and the Zoo has been asked to offer the program again in Fall 2012. What an illuminating view of “current affairs” in our local, national, and international zoos! Amy Stewart’s Wicked Bugs The staff gave a program that was enjoyed by everyone. New York Times bestselling local author Amy Stewart took Zoo visitors on a fascinating tour Judith R., OLLI class participant of the wild world of bugs in September with a presentation and art exhibit showcasing her latest book, Wicked Bugs. While adult visitors were exploring the world of bed bugs and Brown recluse spiders, kids were treated to a guided tour of the Zoo focusing on insects, had the opportunity to feed the chickens with insect treats (crickets), played the Bee Waggle Dance game, and made butterfly masks. During September and October, artwork and behind-the-scenes stories from Wicked Bugs were showcased in the Zoo’s Secrets of the Forest exhibit, courtesy of Outhouse Exhibits. 9 Conservation Sequoia Park Zoo is proud to be part of the efforts of 220 AZA-accredited facilities that continue to build North America’s largest wildlife conservation movement. Sequoia Park Zoo formalized its commitment to wildlife conservation early in 2011 through the creation of the Conservation Advisory Committee, as a joint endeavor between the Zoo and the Zoo Foundation. The committee’s mission is to raise public awareness of conservation issues and directly impact conservation efforts outside of the Zoo by providing financial support to select organizations and field projects. It has been a long-standing goal to offer conservation lectures to the community, and this year the committee kicked off a series of free monthly evening talks led by local experts. Dr. Micaela Szykman Gunther, an Associate Professor in Wildlife at Humboldt State University – and also a member of the committee – gave the first lecture in November, on non-invasive research techniques with African wild dogs and River otters. Dr. Mark Colwell spoke to a packed audience the following month about his research with management efforts for the endangered Snowy plover. Additional lectures are scheduled through March and due to the enthusiastic response from the community, plans are in place to continue the series next winter. In addition to providing education on conservation issues at the Zoo, the committee raises funds to foster continual growth of the Zoo’s Conservation Fund and recommends conservation projects and organizations to receive funding, both locally and around the world. The Zoo’s Conservation Fund is now at a level that enabled the Committee to create a Conservation Grant Gift Shop program. They began soliciting project proposals in November 2011 and will award these grants on an annual cycle, with the The Sequoia Park Zoo Gift Shop continues to first awards occurring in Spring 2012. showcase hand-crafted items like African snare wire art that support wildlife conservation around the This dedicated group continues to explore a variety of additional world, including projects that benefit African Wild funding mechanisms to grow the fund more quickly and increase Dogs and Snow Leopards. the Zoo’s impact on conservation. Species Survival Plans EcoCell Sequoia Park Zoo participates in several captive animal breeding programs called Species Survival Plans (SSP) for Zoo residents including the Chacoan peccary, White-handed gibbon and Red panda. The SSP programs manage the captive breeding effort cooperatively among AZA-accredited zoos to ensure the long-term genetic health of that species. The EcoCell phone recycing program allows conscientious folks to recycle used phones at the Zoo & Eureka City Hall. Phones are refurbished and donated to organizations in less-developed countries or completely recycled for re-use. EcoCell reimburses the Zoo for each phone recycled and proceeds are included in the Conservation Fund. 10 2,200 ghosts, goblins, pixies and animals of all shapes and sizes descended on the Zoo — making it the largest Boo at the Zoo event in Sequoia Park Zoo history. Events Good Old-fashioned Family Fun! Every year, the zoo offers a variety of events and activities for families to enjoy. This year, over 1,200 kids of all ages came out to enjoy some egg-cellent activities during the 15th Annual Egg-stravagana, including the ever-popular Egg Hunt. Over 350 hard-boiled eggs were dyed & decorated for zoo animals to enjoy in the days following. Six months later, 2,200 ghosts, goblins, pixies, and animals of all shapes and sizes descended on the Zoo—making it the largest Boo at the Zoo event in history. The afternoon was packed with frightfully fun activities and the Costume Parade & Contest was a huge hit! During the summertime, crowds loosened up and shook their booties to Speakeasy Saints, Anna Hamilton, The Bump Foundation and Ishi Dube during an evening series of four Twilight Summer Concerts that were presented and sponsored by: KBAE 95.5FM, AppleTree Productions, St. Joseph Health Systems, Graystone Jewelers, OilStop, CalCourts and KBVU Fox 28. Zoo Fundraisers The Zoo’s annual fundraising events—Zootini and Brew at the Zoo—are geared toward having a good time while raising funds for the Zoo. This year, Zootini and Brew collectively raised $50,000 and we couldn’t have done it without the generous support of this community. At Zootini, a stunning one-of-a-kind pendant from Graystone Jewelers fetched over $5,000 at the end of an exciting live auction bid-off! We extend a big thank you to all of our donors and sponsors, to everyone who joined us, and to every single volunteer whose time and energy made a these events possible. Thank you!

Volunteers I like volunteering at the zoo because I love animals. Volunteering with the YAK program has helped me learn how to work with people better. No. of Hours: Alice Abrams, Age 13, Youth Assistant Keeper Every year, Sequoia Park Zoo relies heavily on support from volunteers to help us carry out our mission. Volunteers strengthen our education programs, provide animal care, carry out zoo improvement projects, staff events, and do so much more. Over 100 dedicated volunteers contributed over 5,200 hours of service in 2011 to make the Zoo a better place for animals and visitors alike. In addition to the volunteer programs highlighted on the opposite page, members of our community help the zoo with many other special assignments including Zoo clean-up days, membership mailings and office support. Many thanks to every volunteer for your time and service—we couldn’t do it without you! New Volunteer Program Created The Zoo Interpreter Program (ZIP) is a volunteer opportunity for those interested in inspiring the public through interactive exploration using Discovery Carts that contain animal artifacts and tools that aid the visitor in learning more about wildlife conservation. This was the first official year that ZIP was implemented and eleven ZIP volunteers reached over 2,000 visitors between Labor Day and Memorial Day weekend. Volunteer Coordinator Position Filled In March, the long awaited goal of having a dedicated Volunteer Coordinator was realized by securing funding through Experience Works, a federal program that works through charitable organizations to train and eventually place people into the work force. We are thrilled to have Sandy Sanderson (right) on staff to recruit and coordinate volunteers for all City and Foundation activities. The creation of this position has significantly impacted our ability to meet the needs of the Zoo and engage volunteers to help fulfill our mission. We hope that as we strengthen our volunteer program, our loyal volunteers will notice the difference – with better communication, and greater recognition and appreciation for all that they do. 12 Just as yaks in the wild are essential to the survival of the Tibetan people, Youth Assistant Keepers are a vital part of Sequoia Park Zoo. Working closely with Zoo staff, children ages 11 to 15 learn about the Zoo’s domestic animals and what it takes to care for them. 507 Events The Zoo Foundation hosts special events each year, and help is always needed for a variety of functions that range from running activity stations for the kids to serving up concessions. No. of Hours: 735 Board of Directors The Foundation Board is a hardworking group of volunteers dedicated to fundraising and promoting the Zoo.

The Zoo’s annual operating budget is funded through the City’s general fund and supplemented by Zoo admissions and special programs. The City funds cover animal care, operations, maintenance, utilities, and education programs. The Foundation is primarily responsible for capital improvements, but occasionally, small capital purchases or improvements are funded through this budget. The Sequoia Park Zoo Foundation is a non-profit support organization that was created in 2004 to support the City-run Zoo. Working in close partnership with City of Eureka Zoo staff, the Foundation is responsible for fundraising, marketing, membership, guest services, special events, and other initiatives designed to enhance the zoo experience, including capital projects.
