COVID 19 ANNOUNCEMENT - June 11, 2020
Dear Aggieland Safari patrons and guests,
For the 2020 season, we want to announce several safety guidelines we have put in place to help ensure that everyone who comes to our park has a healthy, happy, and safe time.
These guidelines are subject to change as needed. We will be monitoring the traffic at the zoo and everyone’s experience and may make changes. Please check back on our website to see if we have changed anything before your next visit to the park. We are striving to offer a safe experience when visiting the park.
We look forward to seeing you on Safari soon!
Sincerely,

WE STRIVE TO HELP KEEP YOU SAFE
We at Aggieland Safari are concerned about the health and well-being of all our visitors, and are taking proactive steps to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus. Aggieland Safari is following protocols based on the interim guidance provided by the CDC regarding the COVID -19 (coronavirus) outbreak.
· Actively encouraging sick employees to stay home
· Sending any employee home that may have symptoms of acute respiratory illness
· Promoting proper hand washing and hygiene
· Promoting proper coughing/sneezing etiquette
· Disinfecting frequently touched objects and surfaces.
We have also implemented additional strategies to help prevent spread and exposure of COVID-19 as well as other respiratory illnesses:
· Staff members working inside enclosed areas & approaching cars are required to wear face masks.
· No more than 10 people will be allowed inside enclosed areas (such as the gift shop and animal barn) at one time.
· Drive-thru Safari feed will no longer be provided in buckets and will instead be provided in disposable paper bags.
· Buckets for giraffe & tortoise lettuce are thoroughly disinfected after each use.
· Pens & surfaces are disinfected between each guest.

We encourage all guests of our facility to take steps and be responsible for their own personal hygiene as we continue our efforts to prevent and limit the spread of COVID-19 and other illnesses.
