Picnic Information & Parking Permit

For those of you joining us for the picnic on July 2nd, we've got a little extra information for you.

To park at Taughannock Falls State Park, use this parking permit to avoid paying for parking.  When you first drive into the park, you'll need to stop at the information booth and give them this pass. To get to the booth, take the first right turn from Route 89 after entering the park. They'll exchange it for a valid parking pass and you'll be on your way! Get back on Route 89 and drive over the bridge (about 30 seconds), then take the next right turn to get to the Lakeside Pavilion. A map of the park is included with the parking pass in case you need it.

Once you're at the Pavilion, relax and enjoy! Feel free to bring any games, musical instruments, or other activities. You can also take a hike to the falls (2-3 miles round trip, depending on the trail you take) or go swimming (1/4 mile away). We'll be there at about 4:00 p.m., but the pass is good all day - so feel free to get there early!

See you there!
