News release from the Fort Wayne Zoo:<\/p>\n

Fort Wayne Zoo Announcement<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fort Wayne Indiana (December 10, 2024) – \u201cThis is so much more than I expected from a Children\u2019s Zoo!\u201d<\/p>\n

We have heard the phrase echoed for so long that we\u2019ve grown used to the surprise in a new guest\u2019s voice when they discover that the Fort Wayne Children\u2019s Zoo is an accredited institution and more than just an ordinary zoo, or a small \u201cpetting zoo\u201d. After almost 60 years it\u2019s an exciting time to make a change.<\/p>\n

Effective January 1, 2025, the zoo will be known as the Fort Wayne Zoo.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdhering to our own high standards, working hard each and every day to exceed the Association of Zoos and Aquariums accreditation expectations, all while inspiring guests of all ages to care is what makes the Fort Wayne Children\u2019s Zoo so much more than just a typical children\u2019s zoo,\u201d states Rick Schuiteman, Zoo Executive Director. \u201cThis new name will better reflect who we are and what we do, and our mission won\u2019t change. This name change will also help widen our audience, engage more people in our mission, our conservation efforts, and in our future growth. We are more than a zoo for children, we are a zoo for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since the early 60\u2019s, the Zoo has gone through a series of name changes and logo changes, originally being called the Franke Park Zoo before shifting to the Fort Wayne Children\u2019s Zoo. In 1999 \u2013 2004, the zoo was simply called the Children\u2019s Zoo. For the last 20 years, the Zoo has been identified by its iconic zoo letters which will remain.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Zoo is a beacon in the Fort Wayne Community, and it was with that mindset that the Zoo\u2019s Board of Directors voted in support of updating the name to the Fort Wayne Zoo,\u201d said Tom Ackmann, President, Board of Directors. \u201cThis isn\u2019t a new debate, but a topic that has come up frequently for many years. In October the board voted in support of the name change.\u201d<\/p>\n

In 2023, with the support of the Zoo\u2019s Board of Directors, groups of employees at all levels were involved in the creation of a new Strategic Plan to examine our future and set goals. Many voices contributed to solidifying who we are and a renewed vision. Throughout those conversations about our mission and core values, we took a hard look at our name and what it represents. As a result, the Zoo created a new vision: To create future generations of nature enthusiasts through leadership in animal care, educational experiences, and conservation. We created four main objectives as part of that plan which focus on our love for wildlife, organizational excellence, incredible experiences, and creating a zoo for all. To bring that future to light, we must continue to excel in our field, while being a zoo for all that welcomes all.<\/p>\n

We are more than a children’s zoo. We are the Fort Wayne Zoo.<\/p>\n

The mission of connecting kids and animals, strengthening families, and inspiring people to care remains our guiding light. We will continue to be leaders in animal care, create unforgettable experiences, be a conservation partner to those at home and around the world, and inspire all who enter through our front gate to join us.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
