Event Details

Come create your own snake and meet the resident snakes of Norris Dam State Park! During this kid-friendly program, participants will use recycled materials to make their own snake while learning about some of the species found right here in East Tennessee. We'll discover why snakes play such an important role in our ecosystem, what makes them special, and why they're worth protecting.

This program is $3 per participant and is geared toward children. We will meet in the upstairs classroom of the Park Headquarters.
