If you see a cockroach at, in or around any of our park eateries that is actually an exhibit. cockroaches lived during dinosaurs time and we meant for the cockroaches to be there. not a heath code violation
Moments like this give me so much motivation to continue the amazing work we do... Ran into Officer Juan Restrepo today on the street & gave him two 2019 APD Annual Reports. One for him & one for his mom. He’s on the cover - bottom left! Thanks for your service! #FridayThoughts
