Description:
Claytor Lake State Park presents "Survival 101: Fire Starting" on Saturday, August 15, 2026.

What does fire mean to you? Warmth on a cold night? A chance to spend time with friends and family?

Our rangers will go over the basics of fire building, and all participants will get a chance to start a fire without the assistance of matches or lighters.

The event is free, but the $7.00 state park parking fee per vehicle still applies.

Claytor Lake State Park is located at 6620 Ben H. Bolen Drive in Dublin, VA.
