Check out our little visitor we had outside the Nature Center today. He had a lot of really strange questions like "where's the nearest warm rock?" And "Where can I get a mouse to go?". Weird fella, but he was polite

Last night we proved that you can have campfire fun without a fire! 🚫🔥

Thank you to everyone who came to enjoy the evening with us last night as we had fun, ate good snacks, and listened to some good music! 😁

As we are amidst a burn ban we thank everyone who attended and enjoyed our fun little novelty fire.

Who says you need a fire to enjoy a campfire and s'mores? 🔥🚫

In observance of the wildfires and fire bans we were afraid we'd have to cancel tonight's activity, however where there's a ranger there's a way!🌲

Join our rangers tonight at 7:30 PM behind campsite 11 as we have some good ol' state park fun around our campfire, hold the fire!
There will be treats, games, and fun for any who wish to attend! 😄

BYOC: Bring your own chair! 🪑
