| Support the Park
The Friends of Jockey's Ridge is a nonprofit
organization established in 1990 for the support and maintenance of programs
and the development of facilities of Jockey's Ridge State Park. Their mission
is to support, enhance and promote Jockey's Ridge State Park as a significant
geologic feature of the Outer Banks, North Carolina.
 From the earliest of times, Jockey's Ridge has been enjoyed by
many natives and visitors to the Outer Banks. It is a unique park due to its
geological features and due to its natural movement and change. To help
establish the Park an earlier nonprofit organization, called the People to
Preserve Jockeys Ridge, was formed in the early 1970's at a time when the dune
was threatened with development for houses. As a result of their efforts,
Jockey's Ridge became a State Park in 1975. Today the park is enjoyed and
supported by more than 1 million annual visitors.
