Ancient Islands Sierra will have a table with our famous owl pellets Sunday at Colt Creek State Park as part of the annual park gala to introduce people to the park’s natural and manmade features. Stop by and say hello.
The event will begin at noon and will feature a variety of activities.
Some of the big changes at the park since last year are the opening of the campground and the development of a parking area farther south along the park’s main road to allow easier access to some of the trails in that part of the park.
This park was purchased in part with funds from the Polk County Environmental Lands Program, so if you haven’t been to the park, come visit and see what your tax dollars have purchased.
Colt Creek State Park, located at 16000 SR 471 in the Green Swamp north of Lakeland is open daily from 8 a m. to sunset. Admission is $4 per vehicle.
