Trek for Tracks
Where
Machicomoco State Park, 3601 Timberneck Farm Road, Hayes, VA 23072.
Interpretive Area: Demonstration Circle
When
July 31, 2022. 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Ever come across an animal track and wonder who it belongs to, or better yet, how you could keep it? Trek for Tracks introduces participants to the tracks of different animals that wander our park through a clue finding game, all while their very own track cast dries. Participants will learn about the cultural and environmental importance of wildlife here at the park and leave with a new technique to allow them to cast tracks where they find them on the trails. This program is ideal for participants ages 8+.
