Our programs are mostly held outside. That means YOU:
- Get to be in the fresh air
- Enjoy the flora and fauna around them
- Experience lower noise levels and sounds of nature
- Feel the warmth of the sun
We have everything set up and ready – you just need to register and join in!

School Programs
Programs can be conducted in your classroom, school or a variety of park locations. Check out our school programs brochure for a complete list of programs that help achieve Ohio Academic Content Standards. Please contact the HPD office if you are bringing a large group of students to the park. There is no charge if you are a Hancock County school.
Program Fee Refund Policy
Refunds under $20 may be made in cash. If payment was made by credit card, the credit card fee will not be refunded. Refunds will not be made to the credit card, but will be made via check processed by the Auditor’s Office.
Inclement Weather Guidelines
Programs held outside will be canceled if a Thunderstorm Warning has been issued one hour prior to the start of the program. All programs will be canceled if a Tornado Watch or Tornado Warning has been issued one hour prior to the start of the program.
All programs will be canceled if a Level 2 Advisory has been issued three hours prior to the start of the program. Even if conditions improve following the program cancellation, the program will remain canceled.
If a Heat Advisory or Wind Chill Advisory is issued, any programs for that day will be cancelled. Visit weather.gov and search “Findlay, OH” to see if an advisory has been issued for the day or evening of the program.
