We're looking forward to our 2022 Annual Conference starting in just a few hours! See you there! naspf.org/2022-Conference

Church groups, family reunions, school clubs or professional organizations: All can have tons of fun with group activities at a state park. Start with camping as a group. Many campgrounds offer larger areas and great rates specifically designed for your group to get together.
Then, don't forget to plan your adventures! A group hike, paddle, bike, or trail ride can bring everyone together for fun and adventure while building teamwork, cooperation and, most importantly, recharging your batteries.
Need some help finding a spot, check your state's website or this list. Many of these are state parks! loom.ly/NaAsZ4A

Of course, for many, state parks mean HIKING! Getting started is easy, even with a young family!

Fun ways to get fit in the outdoors start at state parks! A new, popular choice is trail running and state parks are perfect.

Getting into nature at state parks can rebalance, reset, and reenergize both mind and body. Especially true in kids.

birding [BUR-ding]: n. the observation and identification of birds at your state parks

State parks are perfect for this fun and enriching hobby. Check your state's website for tips, the best spots & trails, and times of day or year.
North Carolina, for example, has a list of their best parks for birding and even tips for new birders. loom.ly/j1z8X3Q
Don't forget to go at different times of the year to catch native and migratory species. It is a real thrill to spot one of our feathered friends on their semiannual vacations!
