Swing away at some fun at the Memorial Park Golf Course’s driving range.

For Father’s Day fun that can include the whole family, you can’t go wrong with the Houston Zoo. Learn about the animals and their families at one of the Meet the Keeper talks throughout the day, where you can hear directly from the zookeepers who work with the residents of the Houston Zoo about the meerkats, elephants, reptiles and more. Make sure to feed the giraffes at the end of your excursion through the African Forest, and stop by to tell Zuri, the father of the gorilla family, a happy Father’s Day as well!
