Be transported to a galaxy far away on Sunday, December 2, when members of the New England Garrison and Alderaan Base roam the zoo! The costumed characters are local members of the 501st Legion and the Rebel Legion; groups of Star Wars fans who, with the use of their movie-quality costumes, contribute to the local community through charity and volunteer work. Guests are invited to wear their own galactic attire and bring their camera for photo ops with the costumed characters.

ZooLights, Stone Zoo's annual winter wonderland, features thousands of twinkling lights and amazing animals—including black bears, arctic foxes, Canada lynx, reindeer and more.
