Miller Park Zoo is celebrating today by staying open a little longer. Director John Tobias says that way people that come in later get a chance to stay on the grounds and experience all the exhibits, including a special presentation at 5:30 p.m.

Visitors to the zoo can also play in the new spray waterpark and check out the butterfly exhibit. It's usually open year-round, but Tobias says this year it's only open in July and the butterflies are just now hatching.
You can get into the zoo until 6 p.m. and the grounds will be cleared at 7 p.m. Friends of Miller Park are also looking for volunteers to help during fireworks.
The Sky Concert at Miller and Fairview parks will begin at dusk. The music synchronized to the fireworks will be on WJBC.
