What a fantastic week full of adventure! We told spooky stories Friday, found frogs Saturday, and ended the weekend with a fire building class on Sunday!

We hope to see everyone next weekend for a whole new batch of programs!

Happy October everyone! (Oh my gosh how is it already October 😅)

With October turning everything spooky, we thought we'd jump on board this Scary Train too!

Every Saturday in October we will be hosting our Creepy Creature Feature here at the park, with every Saturday being focused on an animal that many may find frightening.

So come one and come all, face your fears! Afterall who knows, after you leave you may find a newfound appreciation for these wonderfully creepy creatures!

Be there or be scared 👻

Sunset over the river is cool and all, but how often do you get to see the moon rise over it?
