Saturday October 22nd

 

The Season is winding down. We have been rained out seven times so far

but when it is nice, it is magical with the moon and the stars and the night air.

The trails are all lit from the park office and the parking lots.

You've got two more chances to check it out.

Without more participation,

this will not continue.

The season is winding down

and the field at 

The Meadow Amphitheatre

has taken a beating in the rains

so we will need to be doing restoration work there

and need your help to do that.

Please consider contacting the Park Office in that regard.
