Good day on this summery Wednesday.
Welcome to the zoo after dark, when the animals break out the mixed nuts and the pinochle deck, pour themselves a few stiff ones, light up a Camel and relax. But seriously — in this new event, families can hit the zoo in the twilight hours while checking out the animals, enjoying a hundred yard dash for kids 10 and under, family friendly activities, and relaxing at an outdoor showing of "Alvin and the Chipmunks - The Road Chip." 6-9 p.m. $7/$5 children. Potter Park Zoo, 1301 S. Pennsylvania Ave., Lansing. (517) 483-4222, potterparkzoo.org.
