Parent & Child Trail Stomping
Come explore Clifton Park’s Open Spaces!
A nice morning out for young children and parents/ caregivers who are looking to get outdoors this fall and winter. Each hike will last approximately one hour. Some of the walks will be “jogging-stroller friendly” but a child backpack or front carrier is recommended, dependent upon the age of the child participants. Please dress appropriately for trail conditions. Hike may be cancelled in poor weather conditions.
Parent/adult participation required.
Free, but advance registration required. 
Register once, come to as many as you'd like!

This program offers a special opportunity for young children to explore the wonders of learning through outdoor play at the picturesque Veterans Memorial Park and Mooney Carrese Forest. Children will engage in nature-based arts and crafts, discover exciting book-themed activities, and enjoy hands-on exploration of the forest’s beauty. Expect little hands to get dirty, clothes to become delightfully muddy, and hearts to be filled with the joy of connecting with nature right in our community’s backyard! 

Younger siblings below the class are welcome to come play
