Ready for some family fun this weekend? Busy B Ranch and Wildlife Park, the newest and largest DriveThru park in Jefferson, Texas will be celebrating its one-year anniversary this Saturday, August 20.
To help with the celebration I will be there from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. with Kicker 102.5 and we will have lots of prize giveaways, plus there will be free feed vouchers when you show them you follow them on Facebook. There will be a food truck there as well, selling corndogs and funnel cakes. As part of the celebration, everyone who visits this Saturday will have the chance to win a family 4 pack of season tickets!
Best of all, the folks at Busy B Ranch and Wildlife Park would like to show their appreciation by offering its customers and visitors (child admission prices) for any age. You will pay just $12 per person to see over 400 native and exotic animals on their 124-acre ranch. As always, children 3 and under and season pass holders get in for FREE. What better way than keeping the kids active with this amazing drive-thru park where they can feed some of the animals? Busy B also has a petting zoo where kids can get up close and pet some of the animals, you may even see a baby animal or two.

LOOK: Stunning animal photos from around the world
From grazing Tibetan antelope to migrating monarch butterflies, these 50 photos of wildlife around the world capture the staggering grace of the animal kingdom. The forthcoming gallery runs sequentially from air to land to water, and focuses on birds, land mammals, aquatic life, and insects as they work in pairs or groups, or sometimes all on their own.
