Enjoy welcoming the monarch butterflies back to the park, where they will spend the winter. Monarch butterflies are notorious for never reading or sharing itineraries. The little prima donnas could show up early or even after their own welcoming festival! Not to worry. No matter what the butterfly schedule ends up being this year, you will be entertained!
There will be live music, crafts, games, free cake, hand cranked pumpkin ice cream, a kids parade, art, cookies, story time, hand painting, a skit, live music, food, games, activities and more!

*This event is free. Parking is $10 to park in the day-use lot. Hang on to that receipt! Once you have paid for parking at one state park or beach, you have paid for them all! There are over 14 in Santa Cruz County to explore for the day!
