Fire in the Pines Scavenger Hunt!
September 15 – October 16

The southeast is a biodiversity hotspot!

There are so many unique plants and animals that are endemic (native only to a certain area) to the southeast. Did you know Venus Flytraps only grow within a 75 mile radius outside of Wilmington, NC?

We are challenging YOU to spend time outside and explore these native longleaf pine habitats!

  • Find the icons

    There are 5 icons hidden in the parks. Each one has a special fun fact.  While you hike and explore, look out for these 5 icons! If you find one, take a selfie!

  • Share your observations on social media

    Post your selfie with the hashtag #FireinthePines23 on Instagram or Facebook. It’s that easy!

  • Win Prizes!

    Post your selfie for a chance to win amazing prizes from local business, cool gear and more.
