Petroglyph tour – 2 p.m. at the petroglyph site
Washington State Park staff will offer a tour of the petroglyphs, the park's history carved in stone! Learn about the Mississippian-era carvings, the culture and community that created them, and possible interpretations. Enjoy a short stroll on a covered walkway with interpretive panels highlighting the cultural features.
Striped Stingers – 4 p.m. in the Big River Day-Use Area
Can you tell the difference between a honeybee and a hornet? How about a bumblebee and a carpenter bee? Join park staff for a fun program involving striped stinger identification, and make a craft to bring home!
Myth-Busters – 7 p.m. at the campground amphitheater
Some creepy crawly creatures get a bad rap, but is it warranted? Join us for a game of Myth-Busters to see which reputations are deserved and which ones are made up!
All activities are free and open to the public, and there is no need to register. For more information, call the park office at 636-586-5768.
