The band TDC will perform at Saturday's festival, which runs from 5-10 p.m. and costs $10 per car. The admission fee includes the regular $3 park entrance fee, in addition to the $7 festival fee.

"Folks should come early to drive by and see the campsites, since there will be a campsite decorating contest," said Marilyn Grau, a senior Corps project director.

In addition to the live band, Pam Link, of the Columbia County Library, will be on hand for storytelling.

Other activities planned for the night include a hike, haunted house, scavenger hunt, apples on a string, face painting, marshmallow roasting, a bean-bag toss and a hayride.

The hayride is the only activity not included in the admission fee. The cost for the hayride is $2 per person.

"Wear costumes to add to the fun," Grau said.
