Our favorite attraction, the miniature train ride has provided fun memories for generations of families. The attraction has generated income that sustains the park and zoo operations. The train ride is old and needs to be replaced. We need the help of our community to stay on track!

Help us raise meet our goal by riding the train this summer, topping up your bill at the Kiwanis Snack Bar, making a donation, or climb on board as a sponsor and get your very own dedicate seat on the new locomotive. A memorial or dedication gift, honoring all who love the park and zoo. Limited seats are left on the train: connect@riverviewparkandzoo.ca

We will need the whole community to meet our goal and purchase a new train in 2023.

Donate today!
