About Friends of Connetquot

The Friends of Connetquot is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the preservation, conservation and continuation for future generations of the Connetquot River State Park Preserve. In order to maintain the environmental, ecological, cultural and historical integrity of the 3,473 acre preserve, the groups’ initiatives are:

• To help preserve the pristine environment.
• To lend support to the management.
• To help support the fishing habitat, woodlands, flora and fauna, hiking and bridle trail facilities and the educational programs.
• To help protect and restore historic buildings.

The Friends of Connetquot believe that the act of preservation is best accomplished when we keep an eye on the past, a foothold in the present, and our arms outstretched for the future.
