Moonlight walks on Friday and Saturday.... Saturday is the full moon.

Metro Parks Current Program Schedule and Reservations

I don't believe any of the walks tonight or Saturday require reservations, but the time and details are posted on the Metro Park schedule. Saturday, November 24 is a full moon. In November the full moon is called the Beaver Moon and the Columbus Metro Parks have walks tonight and tomorrow night for the full moon. Check the schedule, I am disappointed the two real full "Beaver Moon" hikes are at two parks farthest away for me.. but I have been looking for a reason to go to Battelle Darby Park to hike... It's been years.

Old Farmers Almanac about why the November full moon is called the full Beaver Moon:

Battelle Darby Park - 1775 Darby Creek Drive, Galloway, OH 43119

Blacklick Woods - 6975 E. Livingston Ave., Reynoldsburg, OH 43068

Blendon Woods - 4265 E. Dublin-Granville Road, Westerville, OH 43081

Highbanks - 9466 Columbus Pike (US Rt 23 N), Lewis Center, OH 43035

Sharon Woods - 6911 Cleveland Avenue, Westerville, OH 43081
