The event is free and open to the public.

Back by popular demand, WMCO hosts The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium’s Animal Encounters event in John Glenn Gym on Muskingum’s campus. Enjoy an up-close look at some of the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium’s animal ambassadors.

As part of WMCO Weekend’s mission, they give back to the community who support the station. Non-perishable and monetary donations are collected at event entry to support charities including The American Red Cross, Muskingum County Animal Shelter, and Operation Feed (part of Mid-Ohio Foodbank).
