Wildlife Conservation Society Announces “120 Ways #NYisWild” Campaign

Wildlife Conservation Society Announces “120 Ways #NYisWild” Campaign.

The Wildlife Conservation Society is a wonderful resource for New York families. My kids and I have loved visiting some of their amazing destinations including the Bronx Zoo and the Central Park Zoo. But, did you know that they also operate the New York Aquarium, Prospect Park Zoo and the Queens Zoo?! 

This summer, the Bronx Zoo will turn NYC into a city-wide social photo safari by inviting consumers to learn about “120 Ways #NYisWild.”  The more people share their in-park photos using the #NYisWild hashtag, the more chances they have to win a trip to Belize, one of the locations where the Wildlife Conservation Society does some exciting and relevant conservation work.

The “120” part of this acknowledges and celebrates 120 years of conservation since the founding of this organization, and 100 of the 120 ways take place in WCS parks: Bronx Zoo, the New York Aquarium, Central Park Zoo, Prospect Park Zoo & Queens Zoo.

Here’s what you need to know about #NYisWild:

  • To celebrate the 120thanniversary of the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS), a city-wide campaign called #NYisWild is turning our concrete jungle into a summer-long photo safari
  • New Yorkers can participate by choosing from 120 “wild” attractions around the city and capturing a photo of each for a chance to win irresistible prizes
  • There are several prize levels available, including a special Grand Prize. Entry to win these prizes increases for hitting certain milestones (ex: Escape for 2 to Belize for completing 10/120 or Whale Watching Tour for 4 With WCS Scientists for completing 50/120).
  • From April to August participants can capture each attraction using Instagram or Twitter with #NYisWild and also hashtagging the number of the clue (ex: #NYisWild, #84)
  • Keep track of all progress on NYisWild.com by logging in via an Instagram or Twitter account
    • This site also serves as the only destination for all news & information about this new campaign.
  • Download the full list of all 120 attractions and have fun exploring! Direct download link here:  http://bit.ly/NYisWildOnePager

FiDi Families Insiders: There is an exclusive discount for 20% off all tickets purchased only through NYisWild.com.

With Spring weather making its way here, #NYisWild is the perfect way to spend a day outdoors! Be sure to check it out and have fun taking part in all of the #NYisWild activities!

One of our favorite traditions is displaying our h One of our favorite traditions is displaying our holiday cards on our wall. It’s been so fun to see pictures of our friends with their kids, their 4-legged pets or a beautiful card with no pictures and a note. The hard part is deciding when to take them down. In an effort to stay connected and to keep the conversation going with the kids, I think this year we will keep them up for a while longer. Connectivity is our theme for 2021 and grateful to see friends and family on our holiday wall this year. Any traditions we should know about for the new year? Please share!
