Dark Sky Discovery Night with Wake County 4-H

Join the community of Knightdale for the fourth annual Creek Week StoryWalk, a delightful outdoor reading experience hosted at the Environmental Park. This collaborative project with the East Wake Regional Library encourages families and residents of all ages to engage with literature while exploring the natural beauty of our local park system. Throughout this year, we are pleased to present A Place for Rain by author Michelle Schaub, which will be displayed along the park trail from March 12 through April 22, 2026. This initiative promotes outdoor activity and literacy in a refreshing environment. During your walk, we invite you to interact with the educational exchange box to learn more about our local ecosystem. The park remains open daily from dawn until dusk, providing ample flexibility to enjoy this seasonal installation at your convenience. We encourage everyone to step outside, breathe in the fresh air, and share this unique storytelling journey with friends and neighbors. Please visit us soon to experience this immersive outdoor display and enjoy a peaceful day surrounded by nature.
