Ringing Rocks Park
Bring a hammer and rock out at Ringing Rocks Park. For either
the child who likes music or the child who likes rocks, Ringing
Rocks Park offers plenty of fun. Striking these rocks with a ham-

your very own family band. There’s no point in pocketing one of
these rocks as a souvenir from this day, though, as the rocks lose
their musical capacity when away from the others.
