Touted as the place in town where more than imaginations run wild, the Amarillo Zoo captures the drama and beauty of the animal kingdom for kids of all ages.  The sprawling 15-acre site is located in Thompson Park and features over 60 species of animals from all over the world. When you and your family walk through the attractions at the zoo, you'll notice that the design of each exhibit invites both fun and discovery. And since the zoo is located in Thompson Park, plan to spend the rest of the day in the park enjoying a picnic, a game of tennis, a refreshing swim or brisk walk on one of the many walking trails.

Western Bowl's motto, "Set them up, knock them down" echoes loudly through their eye-popping recreation facility. With a jaw-dropping 60 lanes, there's always action happening everywhere you look. A great place for parties and get-togethers, Western doesn't simply offer a concession stand, they have a full-blown restaurant and lots of other great amenities, too, like a great game room for the kids and Marty's Sports Bar within walking distance of your lane. It's all here under one roof and all that's missing is you!

While you're sitting and sipping your drink at the Old Santa Fe Lounge, you'll feel like you're in some modern-day Hollywood movie. The modern yet dimly-lit ambiance and furnishings will allow you to not only relax and forget your hectic workweek, but it will transport you to another time and place. You'll forget you're in Amarillo when you look around and see the perfectly groomed waitstaff and equally alluring crowd that frequents the Santa Fe. All that's missing from this gem on the nightlife scene is you.

The Tascosa Golf Club presents some obvious challenges over its eighteen holes. You'll face a rolling terrain, elevation changes, and several water hazards on the course. Those include a lake, a creek and a natural waterfall. The Club also features 6,676 yards of golf from the longest tees for a par of 72. Among veteran golfers, this course rates somewhat difficult because of the water hazards and high elevation, so be prepared to have your senses dazzled and your game sharpened by the natural surroundings.
