We have secured free entry for up to 200 people with the Denver Zoo.
To enter the Zoo, you will need to "purchase" your free tickets through the Denver Zoo ticketing link HERE. The free entry and free BBQ buffet are worth over $60 per person, but thanks to our friends at COCHLEAR, we have been able to subsidize the costs of this event for you. However, we are always grateful for donations to keep AusDenver going strong, so please consider making donations when you reserve your tickets for this particular event: $20 for adults & $10 for kids.
When you enter the Zoo, look for signs to the Zoo Garden Pavilion and Wildlife Plaza. We'll have our fenced-off area where we'll have our ceremony and kids' games, etc. Meet and greets of Australian animals will start at 1:00 pm, so come early, explore the Zoo, and then join us for the day's festivities.
We look forward to welcoming you as we honor the ANZAC spirit and its enduring legacy of courage, mateship, and sacrifice.
Warmest regards,
James, Justin, Eve, & Matt
AUSDenver Board
