Parks are more than just places... they’re experiences. Maybe you remember an unforgettable camping trip you took with friends or family, or can think of a historical site that seemed to vault you into the past. Maybe a spectacular wilderness park left you with a lifetime’s worth of photos and memories. Park experiences inspire us to connect with ourselves and those around us.
However, these park experiences are not guaranteed. From ongoing shortages in park funding to the wear and tear placed on park resources by increased visitation to the truly devastating impacts of climate change — including wildfires, droughts, severe rains, and invasive plants — the California park experience is threatened.
You are an essential ally in saving park experiences! Share your park memories on social media and help us spread the word that California state parks need to be protected now and for generations to come:
