Park want to ensure that the park remains an unspoiled jewel of nature by contributing their minds, a little muscle and their financial support. We help enhance and beautify the park by providing volunteer services for various environmental and beautification projects.

An endowment fund has been established to ensure that, for years to come, the park will remain a beautiful and enjoyable park to visit.

Friends Programs and Projects As a Friends member you can assist our Naturalist at the Nature Center.
Volunteers also assist at the Visitor’s Center, freeing the park rangers and staff to take care of more pressing matters. You can also get involved in park projects and improvements such as litter pick-up, habitat restorations and our ongoing efforts to control invasive species. Other projects that the Friends participate in include the Memorial Brick walkway program, firewood bundling and sales, candlelight hikes in the fall, the monthly music in the park programs and the annual Devil’s Challenge Triathlon.
Lake Water Quality Improvement As a Friends member you will be part of a major 15-year project
with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources to improve the water quality of the lake and the effort to control “swimmer’s itch.” The Friends group helped secure federal and state funding as well as providing additional funding and manpower, wherever possible, for this pioneering project to remove phosphorus from the lake beginning in 2002. By removing the phosphorus, we reduce the food source for the snails that cause “swimmer’s itch.” Results have exceeded expectations and the number of reported cases of “swimmer’s itch” has been drastically reduced.
