When

May 9, 2026. 6:00 p.m. - 7:00 p.m.

Hop on over for a hands-on adventure into the world of frogs. Join park staff as we search for some of Virginia’s native frog species and their tadpoles. We'll explore their watery habitats, listen closely for their unique calls, and try our hand at catching and identifying these amazing amphibians. Along the way, you'll learn about their behaviors, life cycle, and the important roles they play in our ecosystem. Be sure to wear closed-toed shoes; you’ll be wading into frog territory!

 Parks are for everyone. If you have accessibility questions or concerns, please call 540-862-8114 or email Hannah.Johnson@dcr.virginia.gov.
