AZA is dedicated to the advancement of zoos and aquariums in the areas of conservation, education, science, and recreation, and we hold ourselves to the most rigorous professional standards. For over two decades we have worked determinedly to forward principles that shape our conservation efforts both locally and globally. At Butterfly Pavilion, we believe that an appreciation of the environment begins with an appreciation for all living things. Each day we teach the young and old alike about the need for conservation because with knowledge and empowerment we will protect the world's natural habitats for generations to come. 1051993 2912430 Guest experience: Butterfly Pavilion plays a special role in the community for hundreds of thousands of children and adult lifelong learners throughout our region. Since Butterfly Pavilion has been in existence, we have provided nearly 5 million visitors with hands-on educational experiences. Serving over 330,000 guests annually, visitors get their first hands-on encounter with invertebrate life and begin to develop an understanding of the importance of these creatures. Invertebrates are the foundation of every ecological system in which we live, and insects make up over three-quarters of the world's animal species. They are pollinators, decomposers, consumers at many levels, and vital to our very existence. We expose children and adults alike to hands-on, immersive science exploration because we know that with knowledge and empowerment is a greater commitment to protecting our world's natural treasures. Our current exhibits showcase and bring attention to these treasures, creating a safe and memorable way to experience the natural world. Exploring a living rainforest filled with tropical butterflies, or holding a desert tarantula for the first time is perhaps the most unique, memorable, and impactful experience our guests will experience. 530625 225080 Education: Butterfly Pavilion reaches over 115,000 youth including over 45,000 students annually. Each year we serve tens of thousands of children through onsite classroom visits and outreach programs. Butterfly Pavilion has become a staple in helping children learn important concepts like ecosystems and food webs, making curricular connections for regional public schools, private schools, and homeschoolers alike. In depth, content-aligned classroom instruction, followed by hands on animal and habitat discoveries are an essential element of Colorado's youth education. Our educational programs are designed to develop the minds and increase the understanding of science and nature while engaging students in numerous ways with direct animal and plant interactions. 3374467 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 39 0 1 109 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 16 16 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 X Patrick Tennyson 3034695441 6252 West 104th Avenue Westminster CO 80020 Robert O'Dea Chair 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Lisa Hough Vice Chair thru 11/2018 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Jordan Alvillar Secretary 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Chad Schneider Treasurer 2.00 X X 0 0 0 Rich Jarboe Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Michael Snider Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Faith Winter Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Joel Cox Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Tisha Schuller Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Kenneth Monfort Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Travis Berry Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Garrett Baum Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Ian MacGregor Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Damon Barry Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Andrew Rowan Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 David DeMott Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Dane McDonald Board Member 1.00 X 0 0 0 Bob Briggs Board Member thru 8/2018 1.00 X 0 0 0 Patrick Tennyson President and CEO 40.00 X 141429 0 22422 Matthew Rivera VP of Finance thru 1/2018 40.00 X 21043 0 1532 Kathy Collins VP of Finance from 2/2018 40.00 X 72647 0 12892 235119 0 36846 1 0 1 0 WDM Architects PA 105 N Washington Wichita KS 67202 Architectural Services 106342 1 78372 849320 765315 41881 1693007 Admission fees 900099 1807326 1807326 Memberships 900099 276268 276268 Outreach and events 900099 240388 240388 Educational programs 900099 225080 225080 2549062 3986 3986 18994 0 18994 18994 18994 6972 78372 6972 0 878670 348848 529822 529822 Miscellaneous 900099 58626 58626 58626 4853497 3137510 0 22980 286036 65370 158737 61929 2103351 1738926 165797 198628 24385 18771 5594 20 229084 195359 19459 14266 186014 136478 37292 12244 20561 20561 1452 1452 200490 106901 66042 27547 117257 94863 22394 226025 85512 82008 58505 129873 97682 19428 12763 50626 32132 16382 2112 14769 3905 10052 812 15163 14132 819 212 341022 282303 48319 10400 21032 18830 2132 70 Program/Exhibit Costs 293044 293044 Repairs and Maintenance 172070 137467 22388 12215 Subscriptions 65751 45165 17803 2783 Staff Development 35178 3804 31053 321 17944 3823 13779 342 4551127 3374467 761491 415169 248587 257122 578667 494204 148548 18367 26341 136393 158221 48309 3660 8316207 4786314 3412163 3529893 145691 131862 4588177 4749851 309388 237410 183437 218851 1060000 985000 1552825 1441261 X 2628267 2715699 261394 461029 145691 131862 3035352 3308590 4588177 4749851 302370 -29132 0 X X 0 1 X 1 0 X 940839 1065930 1185482 1330189 1693007 6215447 940839 1065930 1185482 1330189 1693007 6215447 6215447 4302 5288 3815 4090 3986 21481 8221 7305 225 7663 58626 82040 6318968 12917672 0.98360 0.98710 X 145691 -8433 5396 131862 131247 1000 18720 5276 145691 127712 8452 4917 131247 136711 -4264 4735 127712 104360 33811 2500 3960 136711 1.00000 1 0 977685 977685 5116210 3210790 1905420 1178591 956504 222087 1043721 619020 424701 3529893 4881858 -29132 58945 29813 4852045 1452 1452 4853497 4608620 58945 58945 4549675 1452 1452 4551127 Part V, Line 4: Proceeds from the endowment funds are used by the Pavilion for educational and scholarship support.
