Give Local Piedmont: The Friends at Sky Meadows

The Friends of Sky Meadows State Park aim to continue preserving the park's natural beauty, host educational programs, and build community.

This fundraiser is about more than a single project. It's about caring for the whole park, its history, the landscapes, and the experiences it provides.

During Give Local Piedmont, your donations will aid in the repair and restoration of Mount Bleak House, where water damage threatens an important part of the park’s history. The Mount Bleak House is a historic part of Sky Meadows, and its facing water damage! Preserving this space means protecting an important piece of the Piedmont’s story and ensuring future visitors can continue to learn from and experience its history. 

(Water damage has caused a large portion of the wallpaper to deteriorate.)

At the same time, your donation will support the broader work that keeps Sky Meadows State Park thriving every day! We need your support to help maintain trails, protect wildlife, and continue educational programs - we (FOSK) want to keep connecting people to the beautiful lands and dazzling stars in space!

Our Goals:

• Restore and repair the damaged walls and wallpaper of Mount Bleak House
• Protect and preserve the park’s historic and natural resources
• Sustain the Friends garden and pollinator programs
• Support education, outreach, and visitor experiences
• Strengthen community involvement through membership and volunteerism

This is a moment when your support goes further! Help us protect what matters the most right now, sustaining everything that makes Sky Meadows State Park special.
