Mission

Devil’s Lake State Park hosts more than 2.4 million visitors a year. The nonprofit Friends of Devil’s Lake State Park contribute our minds, muscle, and money to ensure the Park remains a vibrant, unspoiled jewel of nature.

We partner with park staff to complete volunteer environmental and beautification projects, sponsor educational and recreational visitor activities, and raise funds to support park projects and initiatives, like a future Interpretive Center.

Devil’s Lake Needs Your Help

As the Midwest’s most visited state park, Devil’s Lake State Park serves a tremendous number of visitors each year, and generates significant revenue for the Wisconsin State Park System. However, Wisconsin State Parks operate on a shared revenue system, so Devil’s Lake shares its revenues with the rest of Wisconsin’s park properties, leaving only a small portion returned to Devil’s Lake State Park.

The Friends help the park stretch their dollars through grants, fundraising, and direct donations/contributions to help protect its natural resources and increase the quality of visitor experiences. We are a member-based organization. We invite you to join us!

“The park has much to offer in recreation, education and research, but most significant may be its intangible values.”

— Ken Lange, Park Naturalist (1966 - 1996)
