Storytime at Lake Sammamish State Park

Something fishy is swimming our way and it's not salmon! Mermaid Lunalee is splashing her way to Lake Sammamish State Park to read her favorite books about some very important friends and share her adventures around our freshwater watershed! Join Mermaid Lunalee at the Meadow Shelter at Lake Sammamish State Park at 10am on March 1, 2025 for a mystical morning!

Lunalee is a mermaid taking up residence in our freshwater lakes, often found exploring different watersheds of Washington State and sharing her findings with friends in her community! Although she originated from the sea she is fascinated with the connections between land and sea, after all, all water is connected!
