Become A Zoo Booster

Business Membership Program

The Zoo Booster program provides annual support for the Charles Paddock Zoo and its expanding role on the Central Coast.
As a Zoo Booster, your company will be part of a distinguished group of organizations who have proudly joined together with the Central Coast Zoo Society to invest in the future of one of the Central Coast’s most beloved and important institutions, the Charles Paddock Zoo!
An investment in the Zoo is an investment in your local business! ~ An improved Zoo will draw more visitors to the Central Coast which will result in more people spending money in local businesses.
Marketing Opportunity ~ Align your business with the family-friendly Zoo which is visited by over 70,000 people each year!
A better Zoo for animals and humans! ~ Zoo Booster funds help support improvements to the animal exhibits and guest services.
Support animal conservation ~ Charles Paddock Zoo is accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA). Fewer than 10% of wildlife exhibitors in the United States have earned AZA accreditation, which indicates that an institution meets exceptional standards in animal care, wildlife conservation and public education.
The Zoo Booster program is administered by the Central Coast Zoo Society, a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization whose mission is to provide financial support to the Charles Paddock Zoo and to promote the Zoo as an area wide attraction for education, conservation and the preservation of wildlife.
