How Pick.Click.Give. makes a difference

Outdoor recreation opportunities are important to Alaskans and visitors, and the recreation and natural resource values in Kachemak Bay State Park are exceptional. Alaskans and visitors alike enjoy activities year-round including hiking, camping, skiing, snowshoeing, wild ice skating, biking, climbing, hunting, fishing, kayaking, wildlife viewing, and berry picking.

As is the case with many public recreational areas, there is never enough money to fully support the necessary maintenance and protection of these well-used facilities, nor is there the flexibility in government budgets to respond quickly to changing priorities and immediate local needs. Friends of Kachemak Bay State Parks helps meet those needs by funding capital projects, sharing information and encouraging visitors to the Park, collecting data about Park usage, assisting and leading trail maintenance and brush clearing, supporting a trained volunteer search and rescue team, and organizing the annual Kachemak Bay Mountain Classic and other community outreach events.

Without donations like Pick.Click.Give and other donations, we would not be able to effectively recruit and train volunteer trail crews, support transportation costs for projects, and purchase tools and supplies. Many of the spectacular trails in the Park would be lost to overgrowth and necessary facilities would go un-maintained and un-repaired.
