We are hosting an event for our families to get together play games and have a meal together. The volunteers will help man different game/ project stations and can be there in hour increments based on availability.

Dion: 

The work I'm doing now, I had no idea was going to be like this when I first got in the business and also when I was at Emerson. Because granted, I was never one of those people who said, "All I want to do is be on TV," because if that's the case then you should not go into journalism at all. But there was actually a poster put up at my station in San Francisco a number of years ago that says, "Dion finds the good," because I was all about doing happy stories and featuring some of the great things that are happening in our community. And to me that was super fun. I got to go to the Oscars three years in a row, cover the Golden State Warriors as they made their NBA finals runs, things like that. Go smell the world's smelliest flower, which by the way smells like rotten flesh and gym socks. I thought that was going to be my career for the longest time.

Dion: 

Yeah, and I should also point out too that my whole career, up until coming to San Francisco, I was just an anchor, because technically I'm an anchor reporter. And I thought that anchoring was going to be the way to go. Because again, full transparency, you make better money being the face of a television station. And also this was everything I knew. I had a set time every day, every day was the same routine. And yes, did I do appearances in public? Did I report? Yes, every once in a while, but not like this, not timely breaking news. I mean, crime, homelessness, social justice issues. And I discovered that what I want to do, I enjoy reporting just as much if not more a lot of the times. Because I get to go down, be boots on the ground and get to the inner workings and a soul of a person. Because when they are at the lowest low of their lives or celebrating their accomplishments, I mean, that's a big responsibility. It's a privilege, it's fascinating and it's exciting.

And yes, I was a little bit ahead of the curve and I could go to my stations even in Kansas and in Charlotte and be like, "Hey, yeah, I know how to do this in point out point and I know how to tape to tape edit," but I think I probably should have taken it more seriously. I should have thought a little bit more ahead and really picked the brains of the people who are around me, because they are amazing. Paul Niwa and Janet Kolodzy and Marsha Della-Giustina. I mean, they had remarkable careers and I think I was just so focused on mastering as much as I could that I didn't learn enough about their story and really pick their brains about some of the challenges of being in the industry.

The project to purchase an elephant did not succeed and Weston's building was never constructed. The animal collection at the fire station was moved to Magnolia Park (now Brother Bryan Park), but eventually neighbors complained about the noise and smell and the remaining animals were dispersed.

With very little more capital investment, the zoo's collection grew slowly and mainly featured indigenous animals. City leaders decided not to act on a proposal to relocate the zoo to Green Springs Park. During the Great Depression, the cost of maintaining the zoo, which averaged about $4,600 a year, was deemed too much to bear, and a committee of the Birmingham Parks & Recreation Board (which included Jimmy Morgan) voted to close the zoo and sell off the collection. Many of the animals were bought by zoos in Augusta, Atlanta, Washington, and Attalla. The Cole Brothers - Clyde Beatty Circus purchased Miss Fancy, along with the zebu, llama, and nine monkeys for a total of $710. During the 1940s, the closest thing Birmingham residents had to a zoo was another small collection of native species exhibited by the Birmingham Chapter of the Izaac Walton League at Lane Park.

Birmingham, under mayor A. O. Lane, had purchased land on the south of Red Mountain between 1889 and 1892. The former Red Mountain Cemetery, a pauper's cemetery was part of the parcel that was dedicated as a city park in 1934. The Works Progress Administration built a fish hatchery from the Hartselle sandstone quarried out of the mountain within the park's borders. The hatchery was fed by a natural spring and provided stock for recreational lakes in the region until the zoo took over the park.

The first source of post-war support for a new zoo came from the Birmingham Junior Chamber of Commerce (Jaycees). In 1946 Elton B. Stephens chaired a Jaycees committee to plan for a new zoo attraction. In 1949, then-Mayor of Birmingham, Jimmy Morgan, a key supporter of the development, began an initiative to help in the planning and development of a city zoo. He met early resistance from the Birmingham Parks and Recreation Board and his fellow commissioners, but campaigned tirelessly and oversaw the creation of a committee to formally study the feasibility of a new zoo. That group, which included R. H. McIntosh, Vincent Townsend, H. S. Whisler, Ervin Jackson, and Charles McCauley visited zoos in Atlanta, Georgia; Jackson, Mississippi; Little Rock, Arkansas; and Memphis, Tennessee. They proposed a larger, combined "Alabama Zoological and Botanical Gardens", of which zoo exhibits would make up the first phase.

Spurred by Truett's lobbying, the Birmingham Parks & Recreation Board approved $15,520 to commission a 10-Year Master Plan for zoo improvements from Birmingham architects of Felton Collier and Caroll Harmon on January 14, 1971. Their preliminary proposal, presented on October 13 of that year, called for four phases of redevelopment: In the first phase, scheduled for 1971-73, the Children's Zoo would be expanded, a new entrance plaza created, a new expansive "veldt" for hoofed animals with elevated walkways opened, and a central service area constructed. In phase 2, scheduled for completion in 1975, an education and administration building with a lecture hall would be built, along with a new concession stand, additional parking, and an incinerator. In phase 3, ending in 1978, a new big cat area would be constructed near the veldt, accompanied by renovations to the reptile house and completion of the children's zoo. By 1981, the fourth phase would give the zoo a major outdoor rain forest exhibit along with an aquarium with a penguin pool.

Noting that the city funded the Zoo and Botanical Gardens while neighboring suburbs benefited from it for free, Birmingham mayor Richard Arrington (who had earned his PhD in zoology), proposed the creation of a regional authority to purchase the park property and manage both attractions. The proposal was opposed by the Birmingham Park and Recreation Board and did not move forward. Meanwhile, appropriations from the city remained scant, and the zoological society did not bring much in the way of leadership. The condition of facilities continued to decline until, in the late 1990s, the American Zoo and Aquarium Association finally withdrew its accreditation. 589ccfa754
