How you can help

The Division of State Parks and Reservoirs considers interpretation a valuable part of any visitor's experience at one of our properties. Nearly every person who comes through the gate at one of our properties is impacted at some point by the work of the interpreter. If you've ever read a bulletin board for information, hiked a trail and read wayside signs, birdwatched at a reconstructed wetland, picked up a wildflower brochure or visited an interpretive center, you've had contact---either directly or indirectly with an interpreter! Most of the programs and facilities offered by the Interpretive Services are provided free of charge.

Your monetary gift or donation of materials supports our interpretive efforts. If you believe our programs and interpretive centers are valuable assets for Hoosiers, you can contribute in these ways:

  • Donate to the "bluebird" donation box at your favorite property.
  • Ask the interpreter for a copy of the property "wish list" for program supplies.
  • Purchase a gift card to a local department store for the interpretive center.
  • Consider a gift in honor or memory of a special person.
  • Donate to our statewide interpretive services to support training, materials or large exhibit projects.

Receipts are provided for all monetary donations except those placed in property bluebird donation boxes.
