Friends Groups
"Friends" groups are independent non-profit organizations dedicated to assisting a particular park. These groups help with special events and programs, park maintenance, planning, fundraising, staffing nature centers and advocating for the park. There are currently 14 friends groups actively supporting Delaware State Parks.
