Our chapter of the American Association of Zookeepers has begun work on a new eco-project, 'Renewable Futures for Felines', projects beneficial to the environment and at the same time supporting EFBC's mission. In tandem with beautification and improvements around EFBC, one of our projects is to incorporate small area landscaping with drought tolerant foliage - xeriscaping. This year, we hope to break ground in a small space in the exhibit area of center and work from there. In order to accomplish this goal, we are asking supporters, volunteers and staff for their best and easiest recipes to be incorporated into a cookbook to be sold to raise funds for this and other chapter projects, including direct support of the EFBC. Cookin' Safari will showcase quick-fix recipes for busy, on-the-go people. The journey will begin with recipes for breakfast items through midday snacks to evening meals and, of course, desserts. Questions and recipes for consideration can be sent via email to aazk.efbcchapter@gmail.com, Subject: AAZK EFBC Chapter - Cookbook, or by mailing in a recipe. Deadline for receipt of recipes is July 31,2012. Any recipes not used will be kept on file. We are accepting applications for a zookeeper position.
