He is a member of the Indianapolis and Indiana State Bar Associations and is a Barrister of the Indianapolis American Inn of Court.

Zoobilation is the Indianapolis Zoo’s premier fundraising event held each June on the grounds of this downtown institution.  Recent Zoobilation events have included more than 4,000 guests for the one-night spectacular and brought in a million dollars+ each to fund the conservation mission of the Indianapolis Zoo.  Such a large endeavor requires the outstanding assistance of an extensive volunteer committee of community leaders such as John Papageorge who lend their time and talents to making Zoobilation a success.
