Bowling for Rhinos 2014 (Providence)

[urbpan]

Saturday I went to Roger Williams Park Zoo's Bowling for Rhinos event! I took a few terrible pictures but I need to save them to share with my AAZK ZNE comrades so we can learn from our Providence colleagues. This was a painting at the silent auction that I bid on. Didn't win it, alas.



This is how they do their raffles: The paper bags have the number of the raffle item written on them, and a little print out describes the item briefly and includes the number, so there's no ambiguity. See those x-rays printed on the ceramic tiles? I totally won a set of those.


About an hour into the event it became "extreme bowling" meaning only fluorescent lights went on. Had I known I would have dressed in neon. Still, the white trim on my shoes was very distracting.


This is information describing the 5 living species of rhinos, brief natural history notes, their geographic range, threats to their survival, estimated population, etc.
