Friends of Maclay Gardens

“To support and enhance our unique State Park while ensuring the
Maclay legacy continues to be maintained for future generations to enjoy”

Thank you for your interest in Moon Over Maclay.

Due to the forecast of heavy rain and potential lightning this evening, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the event for this year. Ticket sales are now closed.

We are already planning for next year’s Moon Over Maclay and hope to welcome you then with the same fantastic musical lineup we had scheduled for tonight.

We appreciate your support of Alfred B. Maclay Gardens State Park. Stay tuned for future events and opportunities to enjoy the Gardens.

In November 2021 a small red door appeared at the bottom cavity of a grand old oak tree at Maclay Gardens State Park, adjacent to the Overstreet Trail. Immediately thereafter, notes and letters addressed to fairies, gnomes and elves were left at the little door. Magically, the notes and letters were answered by "The Wee Ones."

Who are the Wee Ones, and how did they get here? Are they real or mythical? Some say they're real; some say it's just wild imaginings; but either way, it's a mystery that needs looking into.

And so author Nancy McClure did just that! She put together this storybook based on what Park visitors -- particularly children -- told her, and left the decision up to the imagination of the reader. The storybook is beautifully illustrated by Helen Errahali.

The story is followed by the music and lyrics for the "Wee Ones' Clan Song," a Scottish glossary, as well as fun and interesting activities for young to older children.
