What:
Guided only by candlelight, experience the stillness and beauty of the ancient redwoods.
Begin the evening at the Prairie Creek Visitor Center with hors d’oeuvres from Klamath and Orick restaurants before the Candlelight Walk. Then take a short “interpretive” walk from the Visitor Center to the Campfire Amphitheatre to hear the North Coast Storytellers entertain with stories for all ages including local lore.
After an hour of storytelling around a campfire, the event concludes back at the Visitor Center for mulled cider, cupcakes.
Dress warmly and bring a candle that is enclosed in a plastic cup(along with a flashlight for the walk back from the campfire.) In case of rain, the entire program will be held in the Visitor Center.
