As part of ongoing efforts to connect the community with nature, Brevard Zoo is hosting its annual Party for the Planet on Saturday, April 21 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

“Party for the Planet is an Earth Day celebration that brings sustainable living and an appreciation for our world together in a fun, family-friendly way,” said Andrea Aubert, the Zoo’s education programs manager.

Brevard County Natural Resources, Keep Brevard Beautiful, Recycle Brevard, Sea Turtle Preservation Society and the Zoo’s Sea Turtle Healing Center will be present with hands-on nature play and science activities. Other festivities include games, face painting, music from a DJ and the opportunity to create enrichment items for Zoo animals.

All activities are included with Zoo admission. The event is presented by the Zoo’s corporate partners.

After 44 years of service to Goodwill and eight years as president and CEO of Goodwill Industries of Central Florida, Bill Oakley has announced his plans to retire, effective June 30. The search for Oakley’s replacement will commence immediately, led by executive search firm Korn Ferry.
 
Oakley joined the nonprofit in 1974, serving in leadership roles at Goodwill organizations in Savannah, Ga., and Greenville, S.C. In 2010 he took the helm of Goodwill Industries of Central Florida.
 
Since then Oakley has driven the nonprofit’s growth through new retail stores, donation centers and Job Connection Centers across Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Lake, Brevard and Volusia counties. Under his leadership, Goodwill has expanded its offerings to adapt to the community’s changing needs, adding programs to assist military veterans, the homeless and other job-seekers in need.
