Your kids will love this! Parks and Recreation is hosting the popular Far Out Family Campout and Fishing Adventure at Russell Farm Art Center. The overnight event kicks off at 1 p.m. on Saturday and wraps up at 8 a.m. on Sunday. A Burleson Community Resource Officer will be onsite with the parks staff. We will have archery lessons, fishing, a campfire, campfire stories, and a hot dog dinner with s'mores. Bring your own tent, fishing pole, and bait. Boy Scouts and Master Naturalists will guide your way on nature trails, help you fish, and coordinate other fun activities.

Saturdays, October 16-November 13, 10-11:30 a.m. Play, learn and grow with your toddler (12-36 months) in an informal setting with other parents and toddlers. This event will have 5 Saturday sessions: October 16, October 23, October 30, November 6, and November 13. Session topics include early literacy; speech, hearing and development; child development; nutrition; and music, play and movement. Someone who knows about each topic will be on hand to answer questions. Your child should be between 12 and 36 months at the time of the session. Siblings under the age of 5 may attend with the registered child and parent(s) or caregiver.

Join us for a fun afternoon of making fall desserts. We will provide all the supplies to make caramel apple slices on a stick and pumpkin pretzels. This program is for ages 10-16 only. We hope you can join us.

Join fellow artists at Russell Farm Art Center with Tom Sale, Hill College art professor, each Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon for free and open-to-all studio art time. Each week features a different theme and artists must provide their own materials for sketching or painting. On November 6, draw all things forest! Toadstools, frogs, worms, leaves, and maybe even a tiny goblin cap.
