Save the date for Staunton State Park's Annual Marmot Fest!
Marmots are plentiful at Staunton and ready to be outside after a long winter, so June is the perfect time to see the pups and marmot families playing and basking in the sun at Staunton!
2020 is a “special” year! Our annual Marmot Fest has changed to a visual/virtual meandering hike along beautiful Staunton Ranch Trail from the Meadows parking lot. Learn fun and fanciful facts about our little furry friends...the marmots! Social distances and no touch displays will give all visitors a safe and fun day. Watch marmot videos and dancing marmots, and then...
Head on down the trail to enjoy the Dog vs Marmot escapade and a fun scavenger hunt! We will have a special bag of goodies for the kids, including their very own marmot mask. If you'd like to go fishing, we'll supply all the equipment at Davis Ponds.
In the evening, join us at the amphitheater at 845p for a night sky/moon program - binoculars supplied!
Don’t forget to adopt a marmot plush toy at the visitor center!
