For over ten years, The Rocks has been partnering with The Shepody Food Bank to bring you Albert County Appreciation Days. For a donation of a food item or cash, park admission fees are waived for the day; giving you full access to the park grounds and activities. Since 2007, proceeds from these park days have generated approximately one third of the Shepody Food Bank’s annual budget and continue to serve as a crucial part of their ability to service the community.

This year, there are two more reasons to visit the park on that day. The Huntsman Fundy Discovery Aquarium’s traveling touch tank will be set up to bring you the wonderful underwater world of the beautiful Bay of Fundy. Touch and hold living sea creatures such as scallops, crabs, moon snails, whelks, sea stars and more. Children and adults alike will be fascinated as they learn all about the magnificent marine life that lives in their own backyard!
