Experience the rubber stamp scavenger hunt and the interactive Ranger programs about the arts and natural themes will be provided throughout the afternoon. Previous programs have been about costumes, puppets, musical instruments, park history, recycling, and a backstage tour of Theatre-in-the-Woods.
