Our take
3/5An arboretum and historic bridge park gives a birthday outing a particular focus: plants and a piece of local history. Van de Graaff is worth considering for a child who enjoys those subjects and a family that wants the setting itself to shape the occasion. A few observation questions could give the group a shared activity.
Keep the gathering simple and ask about group use before sending invitations. Choose a meeting point and make a weather backup. This is a setting I would consider for an informal birthday with parents organizing the occasion.
