HOLIDAYS IN PARKS: Enjoy holiday activities in the great 
outdoors. We have details...on Passport to Texas.

This is Passport to Texas

Texas state parks pull out all the stops during the 
holidays.

05� All of our parks are doing some kind of event, or having 
some kind of special event for the holidays.

Aaron Friar promotes parks for Texas Parks and Wildlife. 
During this season, overnight campers are encouraged to 
decorate their camp sites.

11� Which is a lot of fun. A lot of them [State parks] are waiving 
campsite fees for the folks that will decorate their campsites. It�s 
just a lot of fun, because everybody can get involved. It�s like a 
trail of lights.

Nearby communities visit parks during December to 
enjoy the �light-hearted� creativity of overnight campers. 

04� They�ll do hayrides [at some parks] and all sorts of special 
things with that�so it�s fun.

Imagine a hayride through your favorite park on a chilly 
winter evening while enjoying a festive light display 
along the way�and then ending the evening�s enjoyment 
with a craft activity or sweet treat.

13� We have a lot of cool arts and crafts activities that parks are 
putting on. And cookies and hot chocolate and wassail� I think 
we�re going to keep Santa pretty busy this year. He�s going to be 
making a lot of visits to a lot of our parks.

Find a list of events at texasstateparks.org/holidays; you 
may just discover a new family tradition for the holidays.
