The Learning Campus at Gulf State Park runs a Friday night holiday program for families. Guests make an oyster ornament to take home, then watch The Grinch on the big screen with pizza, popcorn and candy. The program runs from 5:00 to 7:30 PM and is recommended for ages 4 and up. An adult must take part, and children under 8 may need help with the craft.
