Missouri FCCLA invites you to spend the day at the Saint Louis Zoo for an exciting Industry Immersion event! Participants will explore a variety of career opportunities while enjoying all the Zoo has to offer. The day features a career panel with professionals from departments such as Finance, Creative Services, Education, and Events, who will share insights into their roles, answer questions, and offer valuable advice for those interested in entering these fields. Attendees will also learn about volunteer opportunities, internships, and job openings at the Zoo. The registration fee includes Zoo admission, the career panel discussion, a lunch ticket, and access to the Conservation Carousel, 4D Theater, and Zooline Railroad. For an added experience, participants can sign up for an exclusive behind-the-scenes specialty tour during registration for an additional fee.
