Get Involved

The Foundation is a dedicated group of friends who support Starved Rock State Park through educational programs, exhibit updates, guided hikes, and more. We work closely with the park staff to ensure a positive park experience. Without our volunteers, the Visitors’ Center, Guided Hikes, and Programs would not be possible.
