Winter 2018

WHO WE ARE

The Friends of Blue Spring is a non-profit Citizen Support Organization (CSO) dedicated to generate additional support for Blue Spring State Park. The funds we raise can provide additional equipment, buildings, programs and renovations according to the needs of the park. You can find our meeting agendas here.

Joining the Friends helps to ensure Blue Spring State Park remains a fun, interesting, educational, and beautiful place to visit! We have monthly meetings every second Monday of the month at 6 p.m. in the Admin Building at Blue Spring State Park.

THE BLUES CRUISE WAS A BIG SUCCESS!

In September we enjoyed the 2nd annual Blue Cruise Members-Only event and were able to welcome many new members on this 2-hour guided tour on the St John's River. A big Thank You to everyone who came out and to the St. John's River Cruises for sponsoring the event!
