    Picture this....cool autumn air, beautiful fall colors in Cleveland
    Metroparks and smiling and laughing, while riding on a
    haywagon.




                   
    Now, head over to Cleveland Metroparks Chalet Recreation and
    experience an old-fashioned hayride!




                   
    Enjoy Fall Hayrides & Square Dancing on weekends this October.
    Visitors climb aboard haywagons for leisurely rides through the
    beautiful fall colors of Mill Stream Run Reservation in
    Strongsville. 



    Join this fall weekend tradition on Saturday nights, October 2,
    9, 16, 23, and 30 from 6 to 10 p.m., and Sunday afternoons, October
    3, 10, 17, 24, and 31 from noon to 4 p.m.The public, tractor-drawn
    hayrides are offered on a first-come, first-served basis, and leave
    approximately every half-hour. 



    The hayrides are just $7.50 per adult and $5.50 for kids, ages 3
    to 11. Kids, ages 2 and under, ride free on an adult lap.



    In addition to the hayrides, everyone can enjoy the other free
    activities, including square dancing fun, scavenger hunts, a hay
    maze, and a face-painting and balloon-twisting clown.



    On Sundays, free bonus activities include Pumpkin Carving 101
    with Professor Patty Pumpkin, a pumpkin painting station, live
    animals, Ranger demonstrations, NatureTracks, and free treat bags
    to kids, 11 and under, dressed in Halloween costumes (with a paid
    ticket).



    And, Sundays, October 10, 17 and 24 enjoy free entertainment
    with "Haystack the Scarecrow" and on Sundays, October 24
    & 31 enjoy free special Halloween games and
    activities. 



    Plus, don't miss Cleveland State University's Street Team and
    mascot "Magnus" on Saturday, October 9 and Sunday,
    October 24 with games and activities for kids to play, too!




                   
    The Chalet Recreation Area is also a great place to have a private
    and fun outing on haywagons.  The fall hayrides are a perfect
    opportunity to host private family get-togethers, business and club
    outings, school and church groups, and special events. 




                   
    The Chalet Recreation Area is located at 16200 Valley Parkway in
    Mill Stream Run Reservation, between Routes 42 and 82 in
    Strongsville - just a short distance from I-71 and the Ohio
    Turnpike.

    Hayrides" at the Chalet Recreation Area of Cleveland
    Metroparks - part of your life, naturally!
