7:30 PM - 9:00 PM

345 John R Road, Rochester Hills, MI 48307

About This Event

A tractor-drawn hayride through Bloomer Park to search for nocturnal animal activity, followed by a campfire with cider and donuts.

What to Expect

  • 1.You'll ride a tractor drawn hayride through Bloomer Park to search for nocturnal wildlife, then warm up at a campfire with cider and donuts. The ride is dim and rustic, so bring a warm layer and maybe a small flashlight if you want to check closer to the trees.
  • 2.The crowd tends to be laid back and family friendly, with neighbors swapping stories around the fire after the ride.
  • 3.There will be cider and donuts at the campfire, so plan for a quick snack before you head home and bring a blanket if you want to sit on the grass.
  • 4.Logistics matter: park in designated lots at Bloomer Park, check-in a few minutes before your ride, and expect a short wait if the hayride fills up.
  • 5.First timers should dress in layers, wear closed-toe shoes, stay seated on the wagon, and follow the guide's instructions for safety.
