Benches and Bricks

Benches

Benches are available at various locations throughout the park. Bench plaques may be personalized and inscribed with brief text before being affixed to the bench. The Zoo pledges to display the plaques on the bench for no less than 15 years from the time of installation. At the end of this time, the donor will have the opportunity to renew this recognition with an additional gift at the prevailing gift amount. Bench tributes are priced at $2,500.

Bricks

Over the years, thousands of visitors have helped pave the way of the Zoo through our previous brick program, “Zoo Bricks: Help Pave the Way." Now, with our pathways filled with cherished memories, we are excited to introduce our new fundraiser, “Brick by Brick," which will support the decoration and funding of our new café seating and play area. Your memories, your words, at the Zoo to stay. We have a limited number of brick tributes available to purchase at $295 per 8" x 8" paver.

Engraving Specifications

  • The inscription area includes 5 lines of text with 13 characters per line, including spaces and punctuation.

You will receive an acknowledgement letter upon placing your brick order, and a notification once your engraved brick has been placed in the Zoo. Brick placement is chosen by Saginaw Children’s Zoo staff and cannot be moved once placed. Pavers are placed twice a year. Support the Zoo Brick by Brick here!
