Five Rivers MetroParks' programs and special events offer families and children the opportunity to be an active part of our mission, protecting the region’s natural heritage and providing outdoor experiences that inspire a personal connection with nature. This program provides opportunities for families to learn how animals and plants change in the fall while enjoying games, crafts, face painting and a yummy marshmallow roast. Participants can explore the prairie and then hear wonderful tales from a storyteller, enjoy live music, a magician, meet Animal Ambassadors, learn the secrets of spiders, and stroll through the beautiful gardens. Refreshments will be provided. Volunteers make it all possible by supporting a variety of family-friendly activities and assisting with event set-up and tear-down.
