You’re invited to join us for Sunday in the Park!

A celebration of you and all we’ve done together in our first 25 years!

Bring family and friends to celebrate 25 years of protecting land & water in Wisconsin’s Driftless Area! 

We’ll share memories, give thanks, eat cake, enjoy guided walks, play games, and view some of the special places you’ve protected!

Live Music  •  Critter Mobile  •  Guided Walks

 

Road Construction

Part of La Crosse Street (HWY 16) is CLOSED for construction, so you MUST approach Myrick Park from the East. (Losey Blvd. to La Crosse Street heading West)

Rain or Shine

Our Sunday gathering in the park is a rain or shine event. The park shelter is HUGE and airy, and there's plenty of room for everyone to be seated, safe, and dry.
