JARC, an organization serving people with disabilities, is hosting its 18th annual SpringElation fundraiser June 1. It is an all-inclusive family night at The Detroit Zoo from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. The private evening at the Zoo includes a picnic dinner by Quality Kosher Catering and exclusive twilight access to many of the Zoo's most popular attractions.
