Help us go pro

UPDATE: We’ve reached our goal! Thanks so much – we look forward to trying out this new camera soon.

Supporters Candy and Kathy have started a mini-fundraising drive to help us purchase the GoPro camera that is on our Amazon wishlist. A GoPro is a small high definition video camera that is rugged and waterproof. We’re hoping that once the snow melts, we can mount it on a fence post and capture some interesting video of the chimps on Young’s Hill.

Thanks to Candy and Kathy, we’re already halfway to our goal of $200. If you like to help us reach our goal, you can donate and let us know that you’d like your donation to go towards the new camera.

        Believe it or not I’m snowed in! My car is anyway! It is stuck behind a foot of snow! I will have the money in the mail Monday since it is supposed to rain all weekend. The snow days were great while they lasted though! (Even if I have to make up the 4 school days in June.)
