🚫Leave at home: Pets (only trained service animals allowed), alcohol, recreational drugs. Large crowds, dim lighting, and technical equipment do not create a pet-friendly environment.

All programs will be cancelled in the event of rain or thunder/lightning. 

We ask that park visitors please leave their pets at home. Dim lighting, large crowds and sensitive equipment do not create a pet-friendly environment.
