Sunday Pt Defiance Trolls & 6K Walk

If you are interested in going through the Pt Defiance Zoo to see the Thomas Dambo trolls, plan to park in the D parking lot and walk to the zoo entrance. You are on your own. The Zoo area is not led. Pay to enter, or show your Pt Defiance Zoo Membership card. There is a special for Veterans or active duty personnel from Veterans Day through Nov. 17th with ID, I believe. Check to be sure. A 12:45 entrance to the Zoo, only allows an hour in the Zoo. Come earlier if you want more time in the Zoo. If you want to do the 6K walk, we are registering for the walk beginning at 1:45 and walking promptly a 2pm. So, gauge your time in the Zoo accordingly. Return to Lot D to register for the walk by 1:45. Walk registration or donation is $3 with volkssport stamps and provided for those who need them. The guided walk starts promptly at 2pm. If you want to walk on your own, I will have some copies of directions available. The 6K walk will be led from the D Parking Lot. If you wish to do the 11K walk, a few directions will be available. The 11K contains hills. We will show you how to shorten the walk if you don't want to do the entire 6k walk. From the Zoo Lot we will walk down to the new trail that will take us to Owen's Beach. Then we walk along the promenade to the Bait and Tackle shop where the walk usually starts. We will direct you where to go back to the Zoo lot if you choose at that point. The walk continues on to walk the Dune Peninsula Trail and returns over the Wilson Way Bridge to Pt Defiance Park and the park road up to the zoo lot. We walk regardless of weather, so come prepared and bring water. There is no restroom in the parking lot. There is one about a half K into the 6K walk, at Owens Beach, and of course, in the zoo itself. Come and enjoy the zoo and, part of the 2nd largest city park in the country,
