STATE PARKS PLAN OK KIDS DAYS, FREE ENTRANCE IN MAY

Many parks combine OK Kids and Free Park Entrance days first weekend in May

May 1, 2008 - April showers have brought May flowers to Kansas state parks, and with flowers come warm weather and more outdoor events. Many of the highlights of state park events are OK Kids Days. This May, several state parks will conduct events specifically for youth. These events provide opportunities for kids across Kansas to experience various outdoor activities, from birdwatching to fishing clinics. For many, this is an introduction to the outdoors. For others, it is a rekindling of outdoor interests.

State parks planning combined OK Kids Days and Free Park Entrance Days in May include Cheney, May 3-4; Eisenhower, May 3; Meade, May 3-4; Prairie Dog, May 3; and Webster, May 3-4. Hillsdale State Park will conduct a Free Park Entrance Day May 11.Other May events range from crappie tournaments to horse trail rides to the Governor's Cup Walleye Fishing Tournament (at Glen Elder State Park, May 4). Each park sets its own dates for these events.

Many events are educational and all make visiting Kansas state parks more fun. For more information on state park events, phone individual parks or click the "Event Calendar" on the "State Parks" page of the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks website, www.kdwp.state.ks.us.

Park goers are urged to phone the park they intend to visit before traveling. Telephone numbers of all state parks offices may be found on the KDWP website. Click "State Parks" at the top of the page, then "Locations" in the left-hand column.
