The following activities are planned this week at Chapman State Park:

“The Boonies International Film Festival,” a collection of independent films appropriate for general audiences, presented by the Northern PA Film Office, will be shown at Chapman State Park at dusk Thursday and Friday. This presentation is open to the public at no charge. Meet at the park amphitheater (Pavilion #4 in case of rain). Visit the booniesinternational.com for more detail.

Join the Park Naturalist for an evening of family fishing from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 21. Poles and bait will be provided. No fishing license is required. Meet at Pavilion #1.

A “Wildlife Kayak Tour” will be held from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 22. Go to the beach concession stand for a short lesson on basic boating safety and join us for a wildlife tour on the lake. Pre-registration is required as kayaks are limited. You may bring your own kayak, but you must still register. The program fee is $5 per adult and $2 per youth between the ages of 8 and 12. This program is not recommended for children younger than 8. Youth are required to use a tandem kayak with a responsible adult. Those under 18 must have an adult present to sign a waiver. There are a limited number of tandem kayaks available upon request. Registrations can be made by calling the park office at 723-0250 by Friday, Aug. 21.

“Steam Stomp” will be held from 2 to 3 p.m. Saturday. Investigate the stream at Penny Run and look for fish, salamanders, crayfish and other aquatic creatures. Be prepared to get your feet wet! Meet at Parking Lot #1.

All programs are open to the public.

Join Pastor Dave at the amphitheater for a Sunday morning non-denominational worship service in the outdoors (pavilion #4 in case of rain) at 10 a.m.
