      The Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center Docks and information are provided at the Dismal Swamp Canal Welcome Center, an NC DOT Rest Area facility, and are located adjacent to the Dismal Swamp State Park, offering trails, exhibits and ongoing programs in Camden County, NC.

      Good afternoon,
       
      Here are the programs scheduled so far for June. We may be adding a 1-3 more, and I will send out a separate announcement for any additions.

      It’s the Year of the Fish! Learn a little bit about the different species of fish that inhabit the swamp and about the Japanese art form Gyotaku, or fish-printing. Make your own fish print to take home. This will be a short (30-45 minute) indoor talk and craft activity.
