Hero Award!

Today Chrissy Oelke, President of the Board of Friends of Wisconsin State Parks, was at our annual meeting with a wonderful surprise…The Friends of Wildcat Mountain State Park received the 2022 Hero Award! The award is given for “Outstanding Friends Group: In appreciation and thanks for your vision and dedication to Wildcat Mountain State Park and its many visitors”. The Friends of Wildcat are grateful for the award and especially grateful for the grant funding the park has received for multiple projects here! Pictured L-R are Andrew Haffele - Superintendent of the Wildcat Mountain work unit, Chrissy Oelke, Dan Catherman - President of the Friends of Wildcat Mountain, and Christina Lake - Park Manager

There are many more great things coming to Wildcat in 2023 including scheduled completion of the Hemlock Trail, a full slate of programming, many opportunities for you to volunteer in a myriad of ways and much more! Stay tuned for updates on all of these topics and we look forward to seeing many of you this year.
