In the early days of COVID-19 vaccinations, appointments got snatched up within minutes, people were willing to drive hours to get a shot, and there were more people than vaccine. About six months later, nearly everybody who wants the shot has likely had it â or at least plenty of access.
Now the attention is turning to those still unvaccinated, for whatever reason. This summer, Pima County, like many communities around the country, is doing whatever it can to encourage those who still remain unvaccinated to change their minds.
Reid Park Zoo staff feeds the elephants during their morning checkup. Although Tucson is located
multiple hours from the nearest seashore, the Reid Park Zoo is inviting the public to a beach party featuring elephants, alligators and plenty of other animals that love to splash in the water. The beach party is the latest installation in the Reid Park Zoo s Summer Safari Nights, where the public can enjoy some special talks about various animals, plus live music, food and drinks, family games and activities with the wildlife. On Saturday, May 22, their Pollinator Power themed night highlighted animals like bees, hummingbirds and butterflies. The Beach Party night on Saturday, May 29, will show off the sandy and aquatic elements of elephants, otters, bears and more.

Hacienda Del Sol Pop Up Drive Through Sculpture Show. Maybe you’ve gotten used to being able to quasi-interact with the world and view new parts of it without leaving your car. And, while you might not be able to make every part of your life work with that preference (for example, you usually still have to leave the car for things like surgery, or getting on a flight), with this event, you can have it the way you want it. This exhibit started last summer at Hacienda Del Sol, and now they’re making it annual! Just drive through the front entrance and follow the signage to view a lovely array of art pieces on display in the desert. On display through Sunday, June 13. Hacienda Del Sol Guest Ranch Resort, 5501 N. Hacienda Del Sol Road. Free.
