 Kid's Free Day at CALM is actually August 30. Throughout the day 9am-5pm as well as during Twilight at CALM 5:30-8 pm. The great thing is that the Valley Yellow Pages will pay the admission for the first 100 adults who come to Twilight at CALM. August 23 is the CALM Ice Cream Zoofari. For more info about this fundraising event, check out the website at www.calmzoo.org.  Tickets are still available!

Lanafain and fellow bloggers,

Thanks for writing and setting us straight. I have amended the original post so readers who see only that will know the right info.

So this Saturday, there's a fundraiser at CALM ... Lanafain says check out www.calmzoo.org for details.

I have always liked Knott's Berry Farm.   Our family used to go every year on my B-day.   In the past Knott's had a policy that guests got free admission on their B-days.  In an effort to track down their current policy on B-day admission I have been examining their web site.  LOOK AT THESE FREE deals they are running this Fall.
