Learn about fireflies and see thousands of them light up the night! This special after-hours interpretive program will be held on Saturday, April 13th and Saturday, April 20th from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. The $15 ticket price for this event includes your park entry fee, and allows one vehicle with a maximum of 8 people. A limited number of tickets will be available on the actual event dates. Arrive early at the Ranger Station if you are planning on purchasing your tickets on the day of the event.

A short educational presentation about fireflies will begin at 8:00pm. Please allow time to drive the Park road, get your vehicle parked and find a seat in the Pavilion for this fascinating information. You will then be guided on a light hike of no more than 3/4’s of a mile in little-traveled areas of O’Leno State Park.

IMPORTANT TIPS
 - Please wear sturdy walking or hiking shoes.
 - Avoid using insect repellent! Protect against mosquitoes with long sleeves and pants.
 - No flashlights or cell phone lights allowed. It confuses the fireflies. Rangers and guides will have red-filtered flashlights to guide you in the darkness.

In the event of significant rain, the program may be rescheduled or cancelled.
