The purpose of this non-profit organization is to provide assistance to the Virginia Division of State Parks for the continued preservation and conservation of First Landing State Park.  This is achieved by supplying funds, materials and/or labor for park approved projects which embraces the educational and recreational opportunities available to Virginians and their guests.


The Friends Group was established in 1988 to provide funds (through fund-raising), for a landscaped area at the Trail Center.  This area would display the diverse plants indigenous to Tidewater Virginia. In 1989, the group received its non-profit status.


Since its inception, Friends of First Landing has expanded its agenda to include a variety of projects to benefit the Park .  FoFL also advocates on behalf of the Park to encourage legislative support and to raise funds for exhibits and environmental displays. We are proud that  First Landing State Park is the most visited of Virginia’s six original state parks.
