Morning of Family Fun

July 24, 2015
We're in for some beautiful weather on Saturday!  Take advantage of the sun and warm temperatures and spend some time outside enjoying Mother Nature.  The Hershey Gardens is offering families the chance to do just that with their Bugs & Beyond program.  From 9:30am to noon on Saturday, they'll be offering some special programming to help kids and adults discover butterflies, birds, bees and bugs!

In addition to enjoying the beautiful gardens and butterfly house, families can:
  • Catch a performance by Grammy nominated songwriter and award winning children's entertainer Ray Owen from 10:00am to 11:00am.
  • Visit with Pennsylvania's Honey Queen, Jessica Onstead
  • Learn something new at the discovery stations.
  • Have fun with hands on activities and games.
  • Get creative designing bugs out of clay.
  • Pretend with the Bug Booth photo op.
