Our Adventure for the Week!  

Posted by: Julie in ,

We're heading out in the morning to go to the
WNC Nature Center in Asheville, NC


"The WNC Nature Center is a living museum of plants and animals native to the Appalachian region. Our purpose is to increase public awareness and understanding of all aspects of the natural environment of Western North Carolina through hands-on and sensory experience."



I know ya'll are thinking...what is with this crazy lady and zoos????

I'm just determined to get my money's worth out of my newly acquired
Greenville Zoo Membership.

We paid $49.00 for a household membership and the day I bought the membership 3 of the children and I went to visit the zoo (I mean, we were already there, right?).

Cost of one day visit for 4 (one child was free): $12.00

Then we went to Riverbanks Zoo. Because of our zoo membership we were able to enter at no additional charge.

Cost of one day visit for 5 (one child was free): $31.50

Tomorrow's trip to the WNC Nature Center will be free thanks to our zoo membership.

Cost of one day visit for 5: $24.00

So the cost of the membership was $49.00
The cost of the 3 (so far) trips would have been $67.50.
Savings (so far) $18.50.

Our membership is good for 1 full year and we just purchased it this summer.
Yep, we're going to be some zoo goin' people for a while :-)
