Our Mission

The Friends of the Rockefeller State Park Preserve, Inc. is a not-for-profit, 501 (c) (3) tax-exempt organization formed to support and encourage public participation in the Rockefeller State Park Preserve lands, to protect its wildlife and habitats and to sustain its historical and archeological features.  The mission further is to help restore and maintain the Preserve’s unique system of carriage roads and pastoral landscapes and to support educational programs and passive recreation such as horseback riding, fishing, hiking, jogging and photography in a tranquil setting.  When Preserve lands are enlarged in the future, the Friends will serve as a public voice in reaffirming this mission.
