Fall and winter are great times to visit the park. The mountain bike trails make for good hiking when there is no snow.

January is the time to become a member of the Friends of Blue Mound State Park or to renew your membership.

On Sunday, June 23, the Summit Players performed Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet for an appreciative audience in the Friends Shelter. (Moved to the indoor shelter because of threatening weather.)

On Saturday, June 15 the Friends hosted another successful Horribly Hilly Hundreds bike event - our chief fundraiser of the year. 

Thank you to the many volunteers and all the tough participants!

In between polar vortices, rainstorms, warm meltdown days, and ice cover there has been some excellent skiing, snowshoeing and fat tire biking at the Mound!

If you are concerned about a possible snowmobile trail through the park plan to attend the initial public meeting Tuesday, March 12, for the revision of the master plan for the park. See calendar page for location.

You can also submit comments using the online public input form here.

Our February Candlelight Ski, Snowshoe or Hike was thoroughly enjoyed by those who braved the fog and came.

Thanks to the volunteers who spent hours setting up and lighting candles and kept the fire going.
