I LOVE Emily and Ruth!! This is my favorite event at the zoo. I walked this year for the first time and enjoyed meeting all other Elephant lovers. The biggest thrill of it all was getting to meet Ruth and Emily- something I will never forget. The staff is awesome and full of valuable information on what we all can do to take part in helping save elephants all over the world. I can’t wait for next year and I am all ready saving to help raise money for such a wonderful cause!! : )
