Enjoy the Savannas Preserve State Park and learn about Prescribed Fires during a Friendly Fire Celebration, on Saturday, June 12, 2021, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM!
Wildland Firefighters and Park Rangers will be on site ready to answer questions. Firetrucks and other wildland fire equipment will be on display. Burn bucket demonstrations will take place throughout the day, weather permitting. Have you ever wondered what wildlife does during fires? Follow along a self-guided hike to find out the answer! Participants can follow along a ¼ mile trail starting to the right of the Education Center; the trail is unpaved and could possibly be muddy. We encourage closed-toed shoes that can get wet!
