BURLINGTON, NC – As the trees turn green and the flowers start to bloom across the area, here at the Conservators Center , we are all taking a deep breath and preparing for an exciting summer. A year of COVID-19 restrictions has left us looking forward to a summer filled with laughing children and families enjoying the park and all it has to offer.
We recently started a new adventure: our Self-Guided Safari Days. These specific weekend days are designed to be the perfect opportunity to enjoy the Animal Park without the need for reservations. We’ve already hosted a few this spring, and it has been a huge joy to meet some nearby locals for the first time, plus new visitors from all over the region.
We invite everyone to come visit! Of course, you can still schedule a private tour, limiting the number of folks you’ll meet along the way and still choosing how you spend your time in the park.

All across the Conservators Center and grounds, as we work hard to spring clean, prepare animal habitats for the summer, and plant new flower beds and gardens, there is a breeze of fresh air that seems to be uplifting everyone enjoying the outdoors with us. So, make a day of it — see the Animal Park, enjoy a picnic lunch, hike the trails, and plan to come back soon!
The Conservators Center is located at 676 E Hughes Mill Rd in Burlington, NC. You can find out more about its schedule by clicking here.
