Montgomery Bell State Park will host a Built Wild Days Event on Saturday, Sept. 14. The event will include Bronco Wild Fund games, a birds of prey program, a volunteer service project to support the park, and a chance to experience the Ford Bronco SUV.

Participants will also have opportunity to learn about birds of prey and see the birds up close, take a guided hike to Lake Woodhaven Spillway Overlook, be a part of the Bronco owner meet-up and group photo, enjoy complimentary hot dogs, and partake in all the park's facilities, kayaking, golf, fishing, and visiting Lodge Montgomery Bell.
