Summer Events Continue at Lewis & Clark State Park

Several events have been scheduled at Lewis & Clark Caverns state parks. There is no cost to Montana residents to attend these programs. An $8 entrance fee applies at Montana state parks for all nonresident vehicles.

Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park has more fun interpretive programs planned in August that highlight the wildlife, night skies, and more from Montana’s first state park.

Each of these programs will begin at the campground amphitheater. Join park ranger Ramona Radonich for the following:

August 5 at 8 PM: “Goodness Snakes Alive!” Learn about the prairie rattlesnake native to the park’s ecosystem and how to stay safe in rattlesnake country.

August 12 at 8 PM: “Night Skies at Lewis & Clark Caverns” Stories behind the stars and constellations of Montana’s night sky.

August 19 at 7:30 PM: “Three Dog Night” A tribute to three cool canines—wolves, coyotes, and foxes.

August 26 at 7:30 PM: Ranger’s choice This program will be announced at the time of the event.

In the event of adverse weather, these programs will move to a sheltered area. Notification of a change in location due to weather will be posted on the signboard at the amphitheater entrance 30 minutes before the program starts.

Lewis & Clark Caverns State Park is about 15 miles southeast of Whitehall, along Montana Highway 2. For more information about the park, please visit stateparks.mt.gov/lewis-and-clark-caverns or call 406-287-3541.
