## Tails on Trails: BARK Ranger Hike

Bring your furry friend and join us for a scenic, guided hike along the Murphy-Chambers Farm trail! We’ll trek through fields and wooded ravines to see spectacular views of the Shenandoah River and the surrounding mountains, as well as Civil War cannons and earthworks, and one of the previous locations of the John Brown Fort. As we make our way along the trail, you’ll learn about the BARK Ranger program, designed to keep our parks safe and enjoyable for pets and visitors alike. At the end of the hike, your dog can even become an official BARK Ranger!

Led by volunteer Dave Cahan, a seasoned hiker who’s familiar with Harpers Ferry's 20 miles of trails, this 2-mile hike is rated Easy to Moderate.

Be sure to bring a leash, waste bags, water, proper footwear, and any other essentials for a safe and comfortable hike. This hike is ideal for dogs that enjoy being around other dogs and people. Participants should meet at Murphy-Chambers Farm parking area. We can’t wait to explore the beauty and history of Harpers Ferry with you and your four-legged friend!

Book launch event is free and begins at 10 am
To all young puppies and old dogs learning new tricks! Welcome!

Join us for the official launch of our new children's book! This delightful story follows Rosie, the official Harpers Ferry National Historical Park B.A.R.K. Ranger, as she tries to teach a mischievous pup how to be a good steward of our public lands.

Along with Rosie, author and illustrator Tara Bell will be present for a special reading of A Harpers Ferry Dog Tale and book signings. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet the author and get a personalized copy of this charming tale.

Light refreshments will be provided for both you and your leashed friends. Bring a blanket to sit on and enjoy the event with your family and friends!
