2017 ANNUAL REPORT MESSAGE FROM THE BOARD PRESIDENT

Few years have been busier than 2017 at the Sacramento . Innovations and attractions spiced up the present and reimagined the future: the draft of a new Master Plan, a rebranding program that brought a whole new look to our website and grounds, a new Mary Healy Memorial Pathway beside the zoo pond, and an array of newborn animals joined the zoo’s collection.

Perhaps most prominently, the first hatch of flamingo chicks at the Sacramento Zoo in nearly two decades was celebrated in the summer. And in June, we celebrated the 90th anniversary of the Sacramento Zoo in William Land Park with a group of community members and dedicated supporters. Jeff Raimundo

The biggest news, however, was our selection of a new zoo director following the departure of Kyle Burks to the Audubon MISSION STATEMENT Nature Institute in New Orleans. After a nationwide search that screened nearly 40 prospects and five final candidates, The Sacramento Zoo inspires appreciation, the Sacramento Zoological Society selected Jason Jacobs, the respect and a connection with wildlife and director of the Reid Park Zoo in Tucson, AZ, to become the nature through education, recreation and Sacramento Zoo’s CEO. conservation.

2017 was an amazing year at the Sacramento Zoo, full of celebration and transformation. We celebrated the zoo’s 90th anniversary and reflected on the generations of families that have enjoyed our zoo over the years. Home to more than 500 native, rare and endangered animals, the non- profit Sacramento Zoo is one of the region’s most well-loved amenities. We welcomed nearly 500,000 guests in 2017 alone.

We also welcomed new animal additions. For the first time since 1999, Caribbean flamingo chicks were hatched at Robert Churchill our zoo. These chicks were hand-reared by our incredible veterinary and animal care teams and continue to be a big hit with guests, many of whom return to the zoo repeatedly to observe the chicks as they grow and develop. In September, we celebrated the birth of a beautiful eastern bongo and a playful Wolf’s guenon and we also welcomed Sumatran orangutan, Indah, who came to us from the Houston Zoo.

We depend on generous donors and dedicated staff and volunteers to transform and modernize the zoo. In 2017, facility enhancements included the completion of the new lake and big cat row fencing, new aviaries near the veterinary hospital and lemurs, and the construction of a new climbing and shade structure for the . The Mary Healy Lake Path is a beautiful renovation to the zoo, dedicated to the memory of Mary Healy, the zoo’s director from 1999 until she passed in 2014. We also marked the occasion of our 90th anniversary with a vibrant, colorful re-branding which expresses an imaginative vision for the zoo. All of these enhancements focus on improving and prioritizing guest experiences, animals and conservation.

I have always been proud to be part of the dedicated team of staff, trustees and volunteers that make the Sacramento Zoo a success. I was especially proud to serve as interim director for the second half of 2017, and I now look forward to the bright future that the zoo will have under the direction of our new CEO, Jason Jacobs.

The nonprofit 501(c)(3) Sacramento Zoological Society, formed in 1957, serves as the managing and Robert Churchill fundraising organization for Chief Financial Officer the zoo, providing funds for animal care, education and conservation programs.

A Educational programs are designed to comply with California Science Standards and incorporate education, recreation and the unique setting of the zoo. From the over 50,000 schoolchildren that visited the zoo on a field trip to the over 100,000 individuals engaged in a Wildlife Stage Show, Animal Encounter or Keeper Chat, messaging about animals and conservation of species and their habitats continues to be a key component to the visitor experience.

As part of our efforts to remain accessible to the community, proceeds from the half-priced 2017 Sacramento Area Museum Day went directly to fund a scholarship for educational programs. In addition to funds received from private and corporate foundations, this fund will provide resources to thousands of children and families, enabling them to visit the zoo each year from the 24-county region we serve.
