Gone are the days of unscrewing a dead bulb to replace one on a string of Christmas lights...
The Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo uses LED lights for its annual Zoolights display.
"It takes about three months to set them up and then it's three months to take them down," said Ferrara. Corinne Hannah is working indoors in the Enmax Conservatory on decorations for the entire space with a Nutcracker theme. "It's usually a nice change from snow removal and ice patrol, so they really enjoyed this process too, but it's long days."
Zoolights has turned into a tradition for many southern Alberta families and Alison Archambault, the zoo's brand and engagement director, says staff take that seriously."Every season is special, but this season just feels like more. We have so much extra planned this year with our 26th year of Zoolights, we have some extra special experiences as well as some preferred favorites."
