Membership

Friends of Faver-Dykes State Park, Inc. Join in.

Become a member of the Friends of Faver-Dykes State Park, Inc. and share in the special opportunity to be a part of an organization whose focus is the development of the park.

The Friends of Faver-Dykes State Park, Inc. is a community based not for profit Citizens Support Organization (CSO). Friends of Faver-Dykes State Park, Inc. like all Florida State Parks, has programs and physical needs that go beyond the States ability to provide funding.

CSO's are designed to provide volunteers to assist the Park Manager with work projects, to service as guides, and to promote and develop special events, as well as educational opportunities.

A CSO can also raise funds: seek and receive grants; accept gifts and bequest of money, tangible property and real property, to benefit its park. One hundred percent of the proceeds benefit the Faver-Dykes State Park, Inc. SC# 12497

PLAN OF ACTION -

Support the Park through ongoing volunteer assistance and community outreach.

Provide educational signage and literature for self guided hiking tours, stressing history and environmental stewardship.

Participate in Earth Day celebrations for increased environmental consciousness.
