Shark Tooth Hunting at Fossil Beach *RESCHEDULED*

  • Westmoreland State Park 145 Cliff Road Montross, VA, 22520 United States (map)

This event was originally scheduled for July, but was rescheduled to Saturday, August 3rd.

Join us for a family-friendly excursion to Westmoreland State Park! Approx. 90 minutes from Richmond, this beautiful riverfront park offers plenty of opportunities to enjoy a fun day outdoors. Paddle the Potomac, trek the trails, or search for shark teeth on Fossil Beach. At 1pm, learn more about the park's ambassador animals, Reba the Corn Snake or Stevie the King Snake, as they feed on a frozen mouse! Stay until evening to enjoy some toe-tapping tunes during Music on the Cliffs

We'll meet at the park's Discovery Center parking lot at 11am for a BYO picnic before heading to Fossil Beach; otherwise feel free to drop in at any point during the day and leave when you want.

Event Coordinator: Christopher Birkl
Cost Associated: $10 per Vehicle. Bring your own picnic lunch
