Take a walk on the wild side this 4th of July and enjoy America's beautiful outdoors!!

False Cape State Park is offering some great paddling programs for all levels of ability.

Last month, I challenged readers to make a "Virginia State Parks To-Do List" by visiting our events website at  www.virginiastateparks.gov/ and selecting five things to do at Virginia State Parks.

There are a lot of fun things to do at Occoneechee State Park throughout the upcoming weekend. Hike through the woods, ride a bike, visit the museum, have a picnic, and enjoy these great programs along with many others.

Did you know that Mason Neck State Park has six canoes, four solo (one-passenger) kayaks and two tandem (two-passenger) kayaks available for rental from April through October?

June is National Get Outdoors Month and after the record setting Memorial Day weekend we had, it is clear folks are ready for a great summer playing outdoors!

Recent research published in England indicates that getting outdoor exercise can significantly improve your mental health and well-being within FIVE MINUTES of being outdoors!! 

The Annual Virginia Hunter Education Challenge was held at Holiday Lake 4-H Center in Appomattox May 2-4, 2008.

Saturday, May 22, 2010, is the park’s newest special event, The Night Owl.  The Night Owl is a mountain bike race with a different twist, it begins at 9:00 PM.

Think about it, you deserve a little more “me” time.
