How did our cabins get built? Come learn about the Civilian Conservation Corp and their impact on parks. We will be demonstrating several tools the CCC used to build cabins and facilities around the park.
We will be meeting behind the Visitor Center at the amphitheater.
On June 15, 1936, Virginia became the first state to open an entire park system of six parks on the same day. To celebrate this significant anniversary, Virginia State Parks hosts History and Culture Day every year on June 15, providing a unique opportunity for visitors to explore the stories that make our parks special while enjoying the scenic beauty of its natural landscapes. From living history demonstrations to ranger-led kayaking tours and guided nature walks, History and Culture Day offers special programs for visitors of all ages.
