About the event

Is your child a budding actor who enjoys the outdoors? We've got just the right opportunity for them: our Theater in the Park drop-off program! Over the course of three days, we'll practice skits and work together to create performances with a "Creepy Critters" theme. We'll have a final production of our work on the last day for your family to enjoy! No experience necessary - just bring your energy and enthusiasm! For ages 7-13. Be sure your child eats lunch before coming to the program! Dress for the weather and bring a full water bottle and hearty snack for each day. Meet at the Cypress Shelter. Please be sure to register your child for all three days of the program! Also, register everyone in your household who will be attending Saturday's performance.

Nature Nerds: Lakeshore Life

Expand your knowledge of our local flora and fauna by exploring a different area of the park each month. Join park staff as they "nerd out" over a different group of animals, plants, fungi or other living things each month. Help collect data for our Biodiversity Project on iNaturalist while increasing your own identification skills. This month we will be focusing on the animals that live along the lakeshore. We will be exploring both on land and in the lake. Bring waders, rubber boots, or other shoes that can get wet and help us collect aquatic species! This program takes place outdoors. Please dress for the weather, including sturdy, closed-toed shoes. Participants may request program modifications during the registration process. Schedule: Sep 18, 2026 Friday from 1pm to 2pm Duration: 1 hour Ages: 8 yrs +,
