Title: Maple Sugaring-Parker Dam
Start date: March 06, 2010
Start time: 02:00 pm
End time: 03:30 pm
Description: 

Maple Sugaring-Parker Dam State Park-Feb 21st, 27th & 28th as well as each Saturday and Sunday throughout the month of March starting at 2:00pm.

Schools and organized groups may schedule a Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday maple sugaring program (March only)

Meet at the park's Sugar Shack, near Pavilion 7, just past the Cabin Road.

Discover the tradition!

Learn the sweet story of maple sugaring, how it was discovered, how it was made years ago, and how you can still make it today!

Learn how to identify maple trees in the winter, how to choose the right trees for tapping, where to place the taps, and so on.  Find out how large, modern sugar operations produce syrup and other maple products; and how Parker Dam State Park's small operation produces this tasteful treat.

A few lucky participants will get to tap a maple tree, gather in the sap, and help out. 

Free pure maple "taste samples" for all visitors.

To find out more about what Parker Dam State Park offers log onto www.VisitPAParks.com or contact Carey Huber, Environmental Education Specialist at (814)765-0630 or email Carey at cahuber(at)state.pa.us .

"The primary purpose of Pennsylvania State Parks is to provide opportunities for enjoying healthful outdoor recreation and serve as outdoors classrooms for environmental education."
