Let’s face it – there isn’t a parent in the world who doesn’t want the best for their child. We wish to invite parents, grandparents, aunt and uncles – anyone caring for children from birth to five years old – to come and learn how to help your child transition into a happy, healthy adult. There will be free health screenings, activities for children and adults, and lots of ideas about nurturing your child for a lifetime of success. There will be prizes and freebies galore, so join us for this free expo. It will be time well spent!

Have a scope on that holiday wish list? The program will highlight and present several entry-level telescopes and related accessories. Learn the do's and don't of shopping for telescopes.

This program is recommended for ages 8 and up and is presented by staff from Cherry Springs State Park, which is recognized worldwide for  the quality of its "dark skies." The program will be held at the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum.

Have you ever been interested in making your own snowshoes or want to know more about what it would take?

This program is recommended for ages 8 and up and is co-presented by State Park staffer, Tim Morey, and avid outdoorsman, Doug Firestone. It will be held at the Pennsylvania Lumber Museum.
