No Christmas, No Problem

Saturday, December 15, 2018 

9:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m and 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m.

Meeting Place: Visitor Center Porch

No Christmas?! What a horrible thought! Come learn why Christmas wasn’t celebrated during (the town of) Davidsonville’s time. Then join park staff in making a few fun simple holiday crafts from the time after Davidsonville. Hot chocolate, cookies, and cider will all be available to enjoy to help drive away winter’s chill. This program is a great way to get the kids out of the house for a few hours if parents need time to consult with the elves. 

Admission: Free

First Day Hike: 100 Acres of Wonder

Celebrate the beginning of the new year with a hike on the adventurous side at Davidsonville Historic State Park. Discover the quiet beauty of Northeast Arkansas in wintertime as we explore 100+ acres of undeveloped woods and wetlands and learn about the impacts we have on the land. After the hike is over, join us at the visitor center for hot chocolate and hot cider around the fire place. Pets welcome on a leash. #firstdayhikes #arstateparks
