Kids In The Woods at Hoffler Creek

October 29, 2012

When we were living in Virginia Beach I took my daughter out to Hoffler Creek for one of their Children’s activities and was amazed to find this beautiful park/preserve hidden away in Portsmouth.

If you haven’t gone yet, you should. And if you need an excuse, this is it! While I was there the staff took the time to tell me all about the plans for their “Kids Trail”. This trail will be a spot reserved just for kids to run, play and have adventures in the woods. The planned Playscape will help make this spot a place for little imaginations (and their active little bodies) to run wild.

Please click through the link below to find out more about the 2012 Kids in the Woods Walkathon taking place on November 10, 2012 at 12 p.m. All funds generated by the walkathon will be used to develop the Kids Trail at Hoffler Creek Wildlife Preserve into a wild, wonderful playscape for children.
