We will make an effort to provide a variety of choices for those with dietary restrictions (i.e. vegetarian options). During the day, campers can choose from various nature activities including guided walks about the Tionesta Creek areas, nature arts & crafts, and/or children's activities. Campers are encouraged to bring personal fishing gear, kayaks, canoes or tubes for a creek float during the afternoon. That evening, a campfire for hot dogs & s'mores, with music followed by the late evening program and viewing of fireflies including the Synchronous firefly (Photinus Carolinus). Stargazing and Long-exposure photography are also being encouraged to those with telescopes or digital cameras. In addition, attendees can volunteer to observe and collect data as community scientists and assist PAFF with their firefly research programs.
