We're planning a trip to the Elmwood Park zoo in Norristown. Are there any metal detectors or wanding there? Planning to CC while visiting.

We visited yesterday, no metal detectors or wanding.

Good thing about the Elmwood Park Zoo is the outrageous pricing keeps the riff-raff out, for the most part. They have gotten more and better animals of late, but admission was steep even before they improved their collection. Cape May County Zoo is great (more and better animals), if you're ever in the area (right off of Route 9, south of Sea Isle City), but they have voluntary donation buckets at the entrances, so...

But, you know, it*s NJ* no reciprocity, no hollow points, mag capacity limits* if you*re a PA resident you*re not carrying there.

Last I knew, Norristown was in PA, when did it move? Not that it would be a loss.

I think he was referring to my recommendation of the Cape May County Zoo in the DPRNJ.

Yeah, I know I'm not carrying a gun there. Maybe a small spring-assisted utility knife and/or pepper spray, perhaps...
