Come Meet Us at the Fireside

Join Washington’s National Park Fund for one of our upcoming Fireside Circles! These enjoyable gatherings bring park friends – old and new – together with park rangers and superintendents for an evening of community building and casual conversation.

Find Your Community in the Parks You Love

In-Park Fireside Circles bring people together for an overnight in Mount Rainier, North Cascades, or Olympic National Parks. Together, we learn about the challenges the parks face, the work that these tireless rangers are carrying out, and what’s ahead. We’ll enjoy guided hikes, talks with biologists, superintendents, and rangers, and unique experiences throughout our stay.

Bring the Parks to Your Neighborhood

Bring together your neighbors, family, friends, and colleagues for an evening with Washington’s National Park Fund and park staff. Neighborhood Fireside Circles are intimate events hosted in homes, businesses, and community spaces with good food, conversation, park guests, and programming to educate guests on the parks. Interested in hosting one of our Fireside Circles in your neighborhood? Let us know.
