Working to make the Park its best...

Parks, especially one as large and diverse as Cape Henlopen State Park, require constant attention and effort. We assess, plan and organize regular events to help keep the Park clean, beautiful and in good condition.

Monthly Trail Days

One of the most  important activities we undertake is aimed at keeping the Park’s trails clear and safe.  Members of the Friends,   (including family from their immediate  household)  regularly participate in our monthly trails days. This involves  trail clean ups, general maintenance  of the trails, and other miscellaneous projects 
​.
Trail Days are usually  held on the 2nd.  Saturday of every  month, weather permitting.: Next Event NOTE: . Date Change May 21st
Meet at the Nature Center parking lot at 9:00am
