Coffee and Conservation

Rock Island State Park

Sat, Nov 14, 2026 at 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM

Event Details

Grab a free cup of coffee and join Ranger Hannah at the Great Falls Parking Area!

Stop by for a casual conversation about conservation, stewardship, and the many ways you can help protect Rock Island State Park. We’ll discuss simple actions visitors can take to make a difference, including Leave No Trace principles, volunteer cleanup opportunities, invasive species removal, supporting park conservation efforts, and more.

Bring your questions, enjoy some coffee, and learn how small actions can have a lasting impact on the places we all enjoy. Whether you have five minutes or want to stay and chat, everyone is welcome!

Coffee is free while supplies last.
