Andy McKee and the Zoology Zone Science Center: Hands-On Learning

  • Summary

  • I visit the Zoology Zone Science Center in Valley Park and chat with Andy McKee, the founder. He explains how the center started as a reptile and amphibian rescue and evolved into an educational facility with all rescued animals. Inspired by his parents, Andy's love for herpetology led him from teaching to creating the center. Despite challenges as a nonprofit, the Zoology Zone thrives with community support and plans significant expansions, including an alligator exhibit and a Valley Con fundraiser. Located in a park with a playground and trails, the center offers hands-on, immersive education, reconnecting kids with nature through interactive experiences. Andy’s dedication and vision make the Zoology Zone a vital community resource.
