A fun, family friendly zoo. Not to big so that your'e completly worn out by the end of the day. Fair warning, it's mostly up- hill, so you will get a "calf work out" in. Plenty of foreign and domestic animals to observe. The "touch pool" was weird and fun. Got my reluctant nephew to feed and touch a sting ray.
Popular for Summer Camps on weekdays, so it got a little crowded in the afternoon. Got there at opening and avoided the crowd. We skipped lunch at the popular meal time (had a snack from the back pack), and had no wait when we did go in for a bite and beer around 3 pm (the bar is upstairs Dads and Moms, buy and bring your food up to the terrace. No alcohol is served downstairs in the cafeteria).
Had a good time, and will go back.

If you build it, they will come.
Well kept field.
Food and drinks available nearby.

Nice jumping off point for a day hike. But I warn you now....BRING INSECT REPELLANT!
Download the trail maps before you go, they have paper ones there, but they are photocopies of copies.

First impression was what the heck happened to the seats? Most were destroyed. And second, the audio was way too loud. By the time the movie was over I couldn't hear what my wife was saying.
On a positive note, super friendly staff, up front and at the concession stand.
But time for a makeover Atrium.

This was the TD Bank location to pick up the packet for the NYC 5 BORO BIKE TOUR. The space felt nice and accomodating. Plenty of room for the tour workers and vendors. Restrooms were clean, and being cleaned.
My only complaint: if you are sponsoring a Bike Tour, you think there would've been a place to lock up a bike if you chose to ride there.
