New this year is a scavenger hunt, where families can get passports stamped at stations staffed by Chosen team members and event sponsors. All completed passports will be entered into a prize drawing. Participants are encouraged to collect pledges, with drawings held for prizes.

"We're thrilled to rejoin in person with our supporters to raise awareness of the tireless work of foster and adoptive parents, and the need for more foster families to care for kids in crisis," said Karen Schlindwein, Vice-President of Education and Development for Chosen (https://www.choseninlove.org/programsoverview).

Nearly 8,000 children are in Wisconsin foster care, a 25 percent increase since 2012. Milwaukee County alone places 100 children a month with foster families.

Participants in the one-mile walk receive all-day zoo admission, parking, lunch, a Chosen annual button and a swag bag. T-shirts are available for purchase. Registration is available at https://www.choseninlove.org/2021-wild-side-registration.
