Celebrate Smokey Bear's Birthday at the Great Falls Discovery Center
Only you can prevent wildfires and celebrate Smokey Bear's 82nd birthday!
Come to The Great Falls Discovery Center for a special visit from Wildland Firefighters from the DCR Bureau of Fire Control & Forestry. Together, we'll learn all about the original Smokey Bear: an orphaned black bear cub found in New Mexico's Capitan Mountains following a devastating 1950 wildfire. We'll also have a Wildland Fire Engine and a Turners Falls Fire Department fire truck on site to explore, a scavenger hunt to complete, and a meet-and-greet with the great Smokey Bear himself!
This program is a collaboration of the Montague Public Libraries and the Great Falls Discovery Center. Sponsored by DCR and Montague Public Libraries. Meet in the Great Hall rain or shine. Check out a library book. Leave with a Smokey Bear souvenir. Free and for all ages.
