Holiday Fun in the Parks!

The holidays are upon us! Take some time out from the hustle and bustle that surrounds us this time of year, and make some memories in the parks. Here are some of the programs we have planned this holiday season:

Christmas Sing-a-Long
This holiday season come to the Historic Longstreet Farm farmhouse and visit with Rick Garland as he plays the piano for an old-fashioned sing-a-long the whole family will enjoy! Free! - Saturday, December 8, 1-3pm

Seasonal Senses
Come to Historic Walnford to see, touch, and smell an array of spices used in historical recipes. Many of the aromas we associate with winter holidays were from products imported by Richard Waln in the 18th century. Free! - Saturday & Sunday, December 15 & 16, 1-4pm

Visit with Santa
Enjoy an old-fashioned Victorian Christmas at Historic Longstreet Farm. Children can visit with Santa, then take a walk to the farmhouse and have a cup of cider. Be sure to bring your camera! Free! - Saturday & Sunday, December 22 & 23, 12-3pm

The Sounds of Christmas
