“We know that Canadians and Calgarians are a hearty bunch,” Roz Freeman said in a Thursday news release. “We know how to dress for the weather and a little bit of cold weather does not damper our ability to have fun.”

“There will be plenty of hot chocolate, warm fires and places for guests to take a break from the cold.”

Zoolights runs from 6p.m. until 9 p.m. evenings (except Christmas) until Jan. 8.
