Fundraising for everyone's benefit... (Scroll down for Bird Seed Sale Details)
FOCHSP members are active and enthusiastic, however neither of those attributes pay for playgrounds or bus rides for schoolchildren or much of anything else. In recent years, we have raised funds for significant improvements such as the installation and operation of the Osprey Camera, the second new bike barn, purchasing an ATV type vehicle for use by the Park's maintenance department, funding the construction of a new pavilion at the primitive campground , purchasing beach wheelchairs and additional mobility mats to aid handicapped access to the beaches.
Following are some of our fundraising activities. We hope you will consider helping us help to keep Cape Henlopen State Park a fun place for all.
