We are so lucky to have beautiful Arkansas State Parks that we can visit for free, including Lake Dardanelle in our hometown. It's exciting that we are able to team up with the park employees and help them while enjoying some fun. The Parks have been so supportive of geocaching we think it's time to repay their kindness.
Please join us at Lake Dardanelle State Park for a boat tour and CITO event. Sasha Bowles, the state park interpreter, has offered to take geocachers on a private tour of Lake Dardanelle to view wildlife. The boat tour will take about an hour. Hopefully we will see some eagles, osprey, cormorants, herons, and other birds or animals. We will do the CITO before the boat trip as a way to thank them.
THERE IS A MAXIMUM OF * 20 * ON THE BOAT, SO WE HAVE TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF PARTICIPANTS FOR THE BOAT TOUR. SIGN UP EARLY TO RESERVE YOUR SPOT ON THE BOAT. EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO JOIN US FOR THE CITO.
