When

June 6, 2026. 8:00 p.m. - 9:30 p.m.

Gather around the campfire for an evening of warmth, wonder, and discovery. Wildlife Rehabilitator Darin Handy will join us with his live animal program, “The 3 L’s of Animal Care: look at ’em, learn about ’em, and leave ’em alone,” offering a rare opportunity to experience wildlife up close while learning how to respectfully coexist with the animals around us. As the fire crackles and s’mores are enjoyed, guests will meet expertly handled snakes, spiders and more, while gaining insight into both native and non-native species. Stories, education, and unforgettable encounters come together to make this a campfire experience unlike any other - one you won’t soon forget.
