Butterfly Release Scheduled At Moraine State Park Regatta

Come to the Moraine Regatta in August and release a monarch butterfly in honor of a special someone, in memory of a loved one, or just for fun! Monarch butterflies are now available for pre-purchase.

Claim your pre-purchased butterfly at the table that corresponds with the first letter of the purchaser’s last name starting at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, August 7th. This release fills the sky with the color and movement of one of nature’s most beautiful creatures, the Western Pennsylvania Monarch. After 4:00 p.m., individuals who pre-purchased Monarchs are welcome to release their butterflies in private. Names (in honor of/in memory of) that were included at the time of purchase will be listed on the Regatta website. At 4:00 p.m., we will present a mass release of butterflies.

The Moraine State Park Regatta aims to showcase eco-recreational activities for all ages and promote Moraine State Park. Featuring water and land recreational opportunities for all ages, nature-themed experiences and vendors from the local community, the event has something for everyone. Without the selfless efforts of dedicated volunteers, the Moraine State Park Regatta would not run as smoothly as it does. The Regatta is grateful to all who share their time and expertise in whatever way they can. Please Consider Becoming a 2022 Volunteer
