Someone just sent the following request to webmaster@highlandparkpa.com. Can anyone help? If asking or answering questions of this type is interesting to you, please join our newly-forming Highland Park History Group. Write to me for details. I will be announcing the date and location of our first meeting Thursday at the Highland Park Community Club meeting. Thanks, -Rudy
When I was a child, during the 50's, our family went to the Zoo. I recall a "Monkey Exhibit", that was a deep pit with a large tree in the center for the monkeys to climb. A storm ensued and the wind toppled the tree and the monkeys escaped. I remember my grandmother, me in tow, "running for our lives".
Can u direct me to any ofiicial news articles regarding the incident?. My memories of this day are fuzzy.
