Everything from the zebra striped doughnuts to the cookies with the Zambezi Zinger logo on them were tricked out for the grand occasion.

At long last it was time to bring the Zambezi Zinger to life.

The first to ride Zambezi Zinger were those who donated $10 for a chance to ride to Kansas City's The Big Slick; a local charity that raises funds for Children's Mercy Hospital.  The Zambezi Zinger first rider raffle raised $20,000 and of course when giving to a charity the only way to go is with a big check.

After the check presentation it was time to cut the ribbon and Vice President and Park General Manager Rick Fiedler along with representatives of The Big Slick and Children's Memorial Hospital were on hand to make the cut.

With a few snips of the scissors and an explosion of streamers into the Serengeti sky the Zambezi Zinger was officially open for business.
