News from the Park

Upcoming Fall Events!

Written by Friends of Harrington Beach State Park

HH Facebook 1200X900With autumn in full swing, look what the Friends have coming up this Saturday!  Don’t forget that pets are welcome but not in the shelter unless they are a service dog.  (A tip: put glowing lights collar on them for visibility. Keep them on a leash not longer than 6ft.)

Check back often for cancellation due to wet, soggy conditions. We don’t anticipate this but with rain coming Thursday through Saturday, we want you to be prepared. See you at the park!
