It’s time to make online reservations now for the 13th Annual History Hayride at Edgar Evins State Park on Sat., Oct. 13th at scheduled times throughout the afternoon and evening. The cost is still $15 per person. It offers history, mystery and theater. This is not a Halloween themed event and is not for young children or others who have trouble sitting quietly for about 2 ½ hours.
The easiest access to the link for making reservations is on the Friends of Edgar Evins State Park website at: www.foeesp.com/history-hayride
If you need help making on-line reservations you may call the park office for contact information for Fount Bertram, President of Friends of Edgar Evins State Park for assistance. The park office phone numbers are: (931) 858-2114 or toll free at 1-800-250-8619.
Ten wagons will leave at approximately 30-minute intervals from the park office and return approximately 2 1/2 hours later. Each wagon will make about 9 stops where costumed characters will portray historic characters and tell about long ago events in and around the park. The audience will remain on the wagons during the entire circuit. A tour guide will add narration between stops during the ride. Reservations will be for specific report times from 1:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Friends of Edgar Evins State Park is an all-volunteer nonprofit organization with the purpose of helping the park. The History Hayride is a fundraiser by the Friends in cooperation with park staff.
