Local wines, ciders, food
“We invite you to enjoy our local wines, ciders and foods with friends, all while supporting Fort Worden State Park,” said Rick Sepler, board president.
The Friends of Fort Worden was established to support Fort Worden State Park.
In the wake of an agreement between State Parks and the Fort Worden Lifelong Learning Center Public Development Authority, which makes part of the park a learning center campus under the management of the PDA, the Friends will raise private funds for both organizations.
Funds will support restoration of the historic buildings, programs, events and maintenance at Fort Worden State Park.
