Community Campfire is a free outdoor gathering hosted by Durham Parks and Recreation at the West Point on the Eno pavilion. While the event is free, you must register online beforehand to secure your spot. The program is open to all ages, making it an easy option if you have both toddlers and older kids. Dress everyone in layers since October evenings cool down quickly once the sun sets, and wear closed-toe shoes for safety around the fire pit. This is a low-stress way to ease into the weekend. You get the classic fall experience of roasting marshmallows under the trees without having to gather firewood or clean up the sticky mess at home.
