Friends of Enchanted Rock

PRESERVATION. RECREATION. EDUCATION.

The Friends of Enchanted Rock began in the late 1990’s when several of FOER’s existing board members, who enjoyed climbing at the newly designated Enchanted Rock State Natural Area, wanted to give something back. With conservation in mind, they began to secure grants and funds from various sources.

Every month for over 20 years, the Enchanted Rock Trail Project built and maintained trails with the help of volunteers from all over the state. The Friends of Enchanted Rock is the first and only official support group dedicated to the conservation and protection of Enchanted Rock State Natural Area.

THE WORK OF FRIENDS OF ENCHANTED ROCK

Through the sustained effort of their dedicated board members, donations from their members, the generous help from many talented FOER volunteers, and corporate partners, Enchanted Rock State Natural has benefited from:

  • 20+ years of improved hiking trails
  • Park-wide recycling program
  • Park-wide water conserving plumbing fixtures
  • “Firewater” rainwater collection system at Group Pavilion for area firefighting
  • Enhanced interpretive exhibits and facilities
  • Educational programs for visitors of all ages
  • Rescue equipment for park staff
  • Dozens of new trees in campgrounds
  • Received Dark Sky Designation

This organization depends on input from folks who care deeply about the park and support them by donating, volunteering, or purchasing their concessions. Please consider becoming a FOER supporter today. All donations to FOER stay in Enchanted Rock State Natural Area!
