National Kids to Parks Day

May 18, 2024 | 8:00 AM

Bear Creek Lake State Park 22 Bear Creek Lake Rd Cumberland, VA

Make today the day that you get your kids to a park for the healthy benefits and outdoor activities. Create your own adventure or join in on two free activities offered at our beach area.

A Discovery Hike at 10 a.m. will depart from the Lakeside Snack Bar and participants will venture onto park trails to see what we can find, and then learn about it. Tree? Mineral? Animal?

At 1 p.m. a Ranger Station will be set up at near the Lakeside Snack Bar with items to investigate, but also provide a time to talk with a park ranger about what they do, or how a kid can become one.
