TUPELO, MS – The Natchez Trace Parkway invites children and their families to come and enjoy “Pitter Patter” as part of the Read with a Ranger program. The program starts at 10:00 am on Saturday, July 9, 2016 at the Parkway Visitor Center, milepost 266.  Read with a Ranger is a new 45-minute program that is most appropriate for ages six and under, but all ages are welcome.  Visitors can listen to a story, participate in a fun activity, and go on an optional quarter-mile hike.  The program will feature a new story on the second Saturday of the month through September.

Participants will hear the story “Pitter Patter,” an adventure of Pitter and Patter, two raindrops making their way through the water cycle.  Although they fall from the sky together, they get separated and make their own way.  Find out if Pitter and Patter are finally able to come together once again.

This program is free to the public. The Parkway Visitor Center is located at milepost 266 on the Natchez Trace Parkway, near Tupelo, Mississippi. For additional information, please call (800) 305-7417.
