“In the early morning hours of February 26th we experienced a small fire in the Baron Bluff building. Everyone is safe and no one was injured. All historic buildings and animals were unaffected and incurred no damage as a result of the fire. We are OPEN for Visitors in all areas of the park except the Baron Bluff building. Thank you for your community support and concern. We will be working to get Baron Bluff up and functional as soon as possible.”
