Enchanted Trail

Enchanted Trail is an immersive, outdoor story experience for families to enjoy on the Timbrook Park trails!

Every month, a small trail in the woods behind Timbrook Library is transformed with decorations and a story. Families are given a scavenger hunt to enjoy as they walk the trail and read the story together. There is a new theme every month, and each one incorporates Virginia SOLs. After the trail, all are welcome to check out books at our Pop Up Library. This event is geared towards pre-school and elementary students, and the whole family is welcome!

This event is free, but pre-registration is required through Eventbrite. Please select one time slot for your family or group. Be sure to dress appropriately to be outside for about half an hour and sensible shoes are a must! Note this is a completely outdoor event, and the trail is not stroller friendly.

Please arrive promptly for your time slot. In order to give each group their own space, we cannot guarantee your group will be able to walk the trail if you arrive late. This event is weather permitting.

The Velveteen Rabbit – Aug. 26 from 11 AM-5 PM

Join us in the woods for a retelling of the story of “The Velveteen Rabbit.” A lost rabbit toy is tossed aside and forgotten about. One day, the little boy rediscovers the old gift, and the velveteen rabbit becomes his favorite toy. See what happens to the rabbit in the magical forest behind the library!
