Centennial Birthday Party Photos

The Zoological Society of Milwaukee celebrated its 100th birthday on Jan. 9, 2010, at the Zoo. The Centennial Celebration Kickoff, sponsored by Tri City National Bank, featured Old World Wisconsin historical interpreters, a barbershop quartet, a museum-style photo history of the Zoological Society, retro kids’ games, a cake-decorating contest and other fun.

Memorabilia from Zoological Society history include an application for membership (yellow sheet) when members could order tiger pins, cuff links and tie bars. In the center is an issue of Animal Talk, the longtime Zoological Society publication (predecessor to the current Alive magazine).Photo by Paula Brookmire
