AS OUR GUESTS

Upon your arrival you will be greeted and given a brief orientation to the Ziibiwing Center. Scheduled groups should arrive at least five minutes prior to your scheduled tour/program time and bring a copy of your confirmation sheet. As guests in our facility, we ask that teachers review appropriate behavior with students prior to your arrival (a list of expectations will be sent when you make your reservation).

CHAPERONES

We recommend at least one supervising adult for every five students in grades Preschool-1st and one chaperone for every ten students in grades 2nd-12th. Chaperones are asked to supervise and remain with their group at all times and in all locations (including the gift shop).

LUNCH

Food may be brought into the Ziibiwing Center, but lunch facilities are limited and reservations are required for school groups. There is no onsite cafeteria, although catering is available. Please call the Ziibiwing Center Sales & Events Coordinator at 1-800-225-8172 ext. 1-54744 or (989) 775-4744, at least two weeks in advance, to make catering arrangements. Download Full Menu
