Plus, visalia calls itself a family values town so why does Merced and even Atascadero have a zoo but not Visalia? it should have a small petting zoo at Mooney's grove park. I think thats more important than an aquatics pool. Every high school has a pool and COS has one for people to go too. I know the Fresno Chaffee Zoo is close but alot of people can't drive or go there. as a former Visalian who who still visits and has family living there I wish Visalia would upgrade the airport.it should have a new bigger terminal and more airlines serving it.
