Does anyone know what happened to Aardvark Territorial Enterprise--- (ATE) in Livermore, California?



I moved, and while moving lost track of them, (they weren't online) and now can't find them anywhere. I actually called Livermore, and got some little girl who had worked six months, who allowed as she had never heard of them..



Anyone? are they still there, in some form, somewheres? thanks, gw



not any more... I lost the newsletter *which was huge) in the move, to make things worse. gw

If I was looking, I'd call the local (there in Livermore) library. Librarians know *everything* -- and if they don't know, they'll look it up/find out. Funds are often limited, so offer to call back on your dime at a convenient time for them. And even if funds aren't limited, the money spent on long-distance calls can't be used to buy books, keep the library open, et al.

J, library fan. And no, I don't work there -- just have come to appreciate the folks who gift those of us that aren't so good at research.

oooh, good idea, will email, too, harder to ignore me! But I agree with you, librarians rock! gw

from 'threads' magazine, feb/mar 1989, no.21, pg.12 Sad news for Aardvark fans...at the end of September, Jerry Zarbaugh of Aardvark Adventures (Livermore, CA) and her husband, Scott, were killed in a car accident...[history of the company]...(her daughter) Deb Casteel is carrying on the business as usual, including Aardvark Territorial Enterprises {the newsletter}..."so we have set up the Zarbaugh Memorial Scholarship Fund".

If you would like the full article (it is fairly short) let me know. The information is dated, but maybe you can track down the daughter?

Hi Debbie, You were replying to a post from 2007, so I doubt you'll get any response.

Thanks for responding to this query. I still miss the Aardvark newspaper. It was such a delight.
