SERTOMAN OF THE DAY:
Bill Benton, Denver native - entering the scene Sunday, October 14, 1928 during the depression, coming in at 7lbs 1 oz. Went through Mitchell Elementary, Cole Jr. High and Graduated from Manual High School, all in Denver – joined the Navy in 1946 and served for 3 years, 2 months as a photographer, returned to Denver and graduated from the University of Denver in 1954.
Bill married Betty (who passed away 12 years ago). Daughter Cindy is retired from Metro West Fire, and a son still flying the nation’s air routes with United. Bill also has a granddaughter that is 24 and a snowboarder ski bum. She moved to the mountains to be close to the slopes.
Bill has peddled cars for Burt Chevy since 1964 but the dealer is been sold so every day Bill goes to work, he looks at the sign our front. He claims to have sold over 23,000 cars and still going. He was asked if he held the title of being the longest employee at Burts but he isn’t, he is real close though.
Bill has a ‘significant other’ Gail, who seems to keep him out of most trouble. Bill was brought into Sertoma by Bill Anderson, some 30 plus yeas ago, back in the days when we met at Wyatt’s cafeteria. He’s been a consistent and faithful doer of good deeds ever since.

Program: John Vierthaler introduced George Pond, Vice Pres. Planning & Capital Projects at the Denver Zoo.

Thematic Habitats: Asian Tropics will be divided into three thematic habitats: Preserve, Asian Village and Village Outpost.
Imagine watching majestic Asian elephants care for their young, Indian rhinos cooling off in a shallow stream, acrobatic gibbons swinging overhead from tree to tree, fishing cats diving for their next meal and the piercing stare of a clouded leopard, all from the center of an Asian village. And then imagine that you are right here in Denver! Asian Tropics will be the new home for some of the zoo’s most beloved animals in addition to a number of important new species. Occupying 10-acres on the southern edge of the zoo, Asian Tropics’ expansive complex will allow visitors to explore and discover the rich history of animals in Asian culture, their complicated relationship with humans and the efforts of Denver Zoo and its colleagues to protect their future.
Saving Animals
The magnificence of Asian elephants, Indian rhinos and many other Asian species will motivate Denver Zoo visitors to understand and help save fragile ecosystems and the animals that rely on them. With nearly 2 million visitors each year, Denver Zoo's elephants and other animals will make a major impact on educating the public about the global efforts to save these endangered species.
Asian Elephant
The most distinctive feature of an elephant is its amazing multifunctional trunk. The trunk enables the elephant to breathe, locate scents and drink. It also allows the elephant to seize and manipulate objects from a small twig to a large tree branch. The trunk is also used to make sounds, greet or comfort other elephants, guide a calf and even to snorkel when swimming.
