The Friends of Murphys Point Park is a registered non-profit charity that formed in 1995. Entirely volunteer run with an elected board of directors and executive, Friends members work to enhance the natural heritage education program at Murphys Point Provincial Park. Our mandate is to further the public’s awareness, education and understanding of the geological, historical/archaeological, cultural and biological resources of Murphys Point Provincial Park by:
◾Undertaking specific educational and interpretive projects related to the park
◾Conducting research about the park’s natural, cultural and historical resources with a view to disseminating findings to the public
◾Supporting existing educational, interpretive and recreational programs for the public’s benefit
◾Stimulating community interest and understanding of the park to help ensure its protection
We work in cooperation with Ontario Parks and are one of dozens of Friends organizations doing similar work throughout Ontario.
