Friends of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

Friends of the Apostle Islands are a diverse group of sailors, kayakers, boaters, divers, lighthouse lovers, hikers, fishermen, beach-combers, wildlife watchers, and many others, who share a love for these 21 islands (and a 12 mile section of mainland) that make up the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore of Wisconsin's Lake Superior shore.

We invite you to join us, and be a voice for these Islands.

Our Efforts:

of the Apostle Islands National Lakeshore

* Increase community involvement with the Islands

* Support the educational, recreational, and resource
protection efforts of the National Park Service

* Raise funds to support park projects and events
