Campfire Programs at Lake Elmo Park Reserve

Presented by Washington County Parks at Lake Elmo Park Reserve

Join area naturalists at outdoor park amphitheaters for a variety of engaging nature programs. Each program runs 45 minutes and presents live creatures, facts, and/or exhibits for hands-on, family learning.

Programs include a bonfire (when conditions allow). Bench seating and grassy areas are available, however, visitors are more than welcome to bring camp chairs and blankets for comfort. Program topics include animal adaptations, bats, bird banding, bugs, dragonflies, frogs, hawks, owls, snakes, raptors, wolves, and much more!

All campfire programs are free to campers and visitors with a vehicle permit ($7/day or $30/annual).
