Join ARMA Jacksonville for an Exclusive Visit to the Jacksonville Zoo & Botanical Gardens!

Ever wondered what records management looks like when your "records" include tigers, gorillas, flamingos, and thousands of rare plants?

Join us for a fascinating presentation by Donna Bear, Curator of Species Management, as she takes us behind the scenes to explore the critical role records play in modern zoo operations. From managing the care of individual animals to contributing to worldwide genealogical databases that support conservation efforts, you'll discover how information governance helps protect some of the world's most remarkable species.

You'll also learn how one of the nation's top zoos—ranked #4 Best Zoo in North America by USA Today for two consecutive years—maintains detailed records for more than 2,000 rare and exotic animals across 122 acres of immersive habitats, alongside 1,000 plant species.

Registration: $20 per person
Giving Back: 100% of ticket proceeds will be donated to the Jacksonville Zoo & Botanical Gardens.

Don't miss this unique opportunity to see records management in action in a setting unlike any other!
