Here's just a preview of what we have planned for 2012:
April
We'll kick of the season right with the "Start of Something Good" weekend. Yogi Bear will wake up from his long winter nap and will have plenty of arts, crafts, and games planned for the entire family. Then hold on tight as we go out of this world for our Outer Space Adventure. Next it's time to put on the thinking caps as we take basic science topics and make them fun during the Mad Science Weekend. And we can't forget Yogi Bear's favorite holiday...Easter! Join us for our popular egg hunt, themed crafts, bunny races, and more!
May
May showers don't stop us as we celebrate our 4th annual Cinco de Mayo. Then stick around for Mother's Day Weekend. It's time to treat Mom like the queen she is! Enter her in our famous game...Runway Mom. And Mom's...Yogi Bear is going to treat you to a FREE pancake breakfast on Sunday morning!
Then its time for our In-Season Opener, Beat the Clock weekend where we will race against time in wacky relays and games like Minute to Win it. We end May with a bang by hosting our Memorial Day Hooray for Heroes Weekend. There will be games, banner making, bike decorating contests, pot and pan parades, pool parties featuring our dj, live music, a catered dinner, and more!
June
This is Yogi Bear's favorite month! We start it off right in our first ever Strutt Your Mutt pet weekend. Bring along the family dog and participate in pet parades, pet talent shows and maybe even bring home a new addition to the family in our Adopt a Puppy event. Then its time for Yogi's Hawaiian Luau Birthday Bash. There will be hula dancing, "Babaloo" music show, a live band, pig roast, birthday cards for Yogi, and of course a giant birthday cake.
Then it's all about Dad and sports. Compete in field day like games or enter into our Mr. Jellystone Park talent show. Then on Father's day, don't miss the chance to meet FREDBIRDÒ from the St. Louis Cardinals! June also features our Junior Rangers Safari week where we will dissect owl pellets and learn about nature. Then we finish the month with our Wet-N-Wild Countdown to the 4th Carnival Event. There will be carnival games, a hotdog eating competition, dunk tank, balloon maker, cake walks a caricaturist, and much more!
July
This is a great month to visit! We are goin' mad in our Mad Science/Junior Mythbusters after the 4th week. Want to know if you slide faster in syrup or water? Or how to drop and egg without it breaking? We're going to find out and then enjoy fun demonstrations in our Mad Science of St. louis fire, wind, and ice show. July also features our Solve a Pirate Mystery event, our Wild West poker tournament and pajama party, and our wet and wild game show week! The end of the month is our first ever Campers Revenge Weekend where we will bring back our popular Carnival Event. Play carnival games, hit a staffer with a pie, dunk a staffer in the dunk tank, enjoy our dj at the pool party, and try to win during Campers vs Staff Volleyball game!
August
We start off the month with Family Olympics week. Create your family flag, walk in the parade of families, compete in field day/olympic games, then dance the night away in our Closing Cermony dance party! Next is our Fantastically Fun Food Week...if you like food this week is for you! August is also the month of our Countdown to fall football tailgating party, Boo-Boo's Back to School Week, and Craftapalooza!
September
It's time for everyone's favorite event...the Death by Chocolate Weekend! What better way to celebrate Labor Day weekend than to participate in activities, games, and crafts, that all have one thing in common...CHOCOLATE! Don't miss our pool party, catered dinner, and live band this Labor Day. Also, Jellystone Park celebrates Halloween during our 3-week long Spooktacular event during September.
