Thanksgiving Crafts and Cheer
This Thanksgiving, unleash your creativity! The park is hosting a series of hands-on craft programs that are perfect for families and friends alike. Have you ever dreamed of making a unique turkey or creating something special for the occasion? This is your chance! You can decoupage an oyster shell or even transform a simple can into a vibrant butterfly or a cute sea turtle. How cute is that?
Ann Wilson, one of the park rangers, has shared how excited they are to introduce these craft projects. “We have a whole lot of things going on for the rest of November, and also we’re looking towards the holidays!” she exclaimed. With all the festive fun, it’s a great way to connect with nature and each other during this special time of year.
Photos with Santa – A Holi-deal!

Families can capture the magic of the season without having to break the bank, as the photos are FREE with park admission! What a sweet deal!
Children will also have the opportunity to engage in a delightful craft by making their own wooden reindeers. So, bring your kids along, and let them dive into the festive spirit with a creative twist! It’s not just about the photos; it’s about building memories that last a lifetime.
Take a Hike and Spot Some Whales!
