“I did clinicals here when I was in nursing school. I have always been VERY IMPRESSED by all the Humanitarian aid types of programs that IDAHO FALLS has to offer. If we could just fix the HORRIBLE court system.”
“It's a good thing. Volunteers are always welcome. Hygiene kits, blankets, folder games, hand painted wood toys. Give them a try you'll feel better and you will have helped somebody in need. ????”
“East Idaho Aquarium is a fun place to visit. It is rather small as aquariums go but has some interesting exhibits. Besides the usual tropical fish and shrimp there is a shark tank, a tank for rays, and freshwater trout. There is also a large bird exhibit with tocans and parrots, a porcupine and a sloth that paints pictures you can purchase. They also have two tortoise and some iguanas and a bearded dragon. The biggest hit for our group of visitors was the aviary filled with hundreds of parakeets and cockatiels, which you can enter and feed and interact with. The birds land on your head, arms and hands looking for a treat. You can purchase food for them and feed them from your hands. (It's not cheap and thare is only a tiny amount of food in the bubbles ). The aquarium also has a gift shop.To be noted, the floors are rough concrete and sloped multiple directions. They are supposedly to prevent falls from being slippery, but present a serious fall hazard.. caution should be taken. The lighting is poor, and most tanks are dingy. The smell by the birds is pretty overwhelming.There are benches to allow people to sit. And a couple of hand washing stations.We spent about an hour and a half, walking slowly. Then the grandkids wanted to go back through, and feed the birds again, so they spent another hour after we left.Frankly, for what you get, it is rather expensive.”
“I love how friendly the staff are, but more importantly, they help our community! I love how they help families at Christmas! Amazing place to find a treasure or 5.”
