LADIES AND GENTLEMAN: The East Baton Rouge Parish Recreation and Park Commission (BREC) is a finalist for this year's National Gold Medal Awards from the American Academy for Park and Recreation Administration and the National Recreation and Park Association.

I fully oppose BREC being awarded such an prestigious honor in light of their proposed plan to move the ZOO from its current location based on a biased study paid for by a "private group" deciding the the future of a "public entity".

Please email: awards@nrpa.org, write: Brenda Beals, National Recreation and Park Association, 22377 Belmont Ridge Road Ashburn Virginia 20148, or call: (703) 858-0784.

We don't need to reinvent the wheel, please send them photos, comments, the petitions, media clips, articles, and letters to notify them of the plight of our BREC ZOO!

People forget it's there, and that it's an option for enjoyment and fun. I love to go to the zoo to walk and look and breath and enjoy. It would be nice to have fresh new animals and exhibits with actual animals in them (I'm tired of looking at empty caves) and perhaps some shows and places to eat. An area where kids could play in the water would be great! Might be fun for adults too if it's hot enough. No pools, just sprinklers, water that dumps, etc. Visit the New Orleans Zoo, it's worth the trip and ours should be the same.

It's because the zoo is well kept. Not because of where it is. If our zoo were world class I could draw people from around the state right where it is.

Upgrades are needed, but that is a given in any location! BREC needs to take care of their current facilities and stop pushing to move EVERYTHING south, where access for those of us who live in the northern part of the parish is difficult! KEEP THE ZOO WHERE IT IS! I
