INCLEMENT WEATHER POLICY
 

Birthdays at Ijams are rain or shine; outdoor activities still occur during rain, mud, hot summer days, and chilly winter mornings. Party participants should dress appropriately for outdoor conditions. In the case of inclement weather (lightning and thunder, pouring rain, temperatures below 20 degrees F, or temperatures above 100 degrees F), outdoor activities will be substituted with a short, fun indoor lesson and a themed craft followed by the animal presentation. Lessons and crafts vary depending on the party theme. Contact Ijams Public Programs Coordinator Katie Brittian for more information.
