Discounts on Memorial Day for Military Personnel
On Monday Memorial Day, the Lowry Park Zoo and the Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) are offering discounts to military personnel. At Lowry Park Zoo any active duty, activated, retired or drilling reservist, or National Guardsman is entitled to free admission. An military ID card must be shown. 3 direct dependents of the military member are also eligible for free admission. Dependents may take advantage of the offer without their service member, though an adult must accompany minor dependents. This is a great deal! Normal admission price to the Zoo is $18.95 for adults and $14.50 for children ages 3-11. Enjoy the natural outdoor exhibits for the more than 2000 animals. The Zoo also has rides, show and hands-on interactive exhibits. The rides cost an additional $18. Lowry Park Zoo is about a 30 minute drive north of MacDill AFB with free parking.
