Job tasks and duties
The Beestenborg petting zoo has been around for 35 years. In addition to the daily animal care, there are also a number of activities each year. We are looking for people who want to help organize and carry out these activities. In recent years, we have organized an Easter activity, with painting and searching for eggs. We have organized the Sheep Shearing Festival. This is a big party with about 1000 visitors, catering, a market, children's activities, a sheep shearer, etc. In December, we organize our Christmas market, with workshops, stalls and catering. This is also visited by many local residents.
There is certainly room for new initiatives!
