Dear State Park eFriends

Welcome to the December issue of State Park eFriends. It’s hard to believe that 2012 will soon be coming to a close. It has been an amazing and productive year and we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did. I hope your time in Missouri state parks was a highlight of your year.

With Christmas not far away, it’s time to start thinking about gifts for outdoor lovers. State park gift cards are the perfect solution and are easy and convenient to use. The new Trails of Missouri State Parks is a great gift for anyone who already loves trails or for someone who wants to explore trails for the first time in 2013. December also means it’s time to enjoy the many holiday events in state parks and historic sites.

Thank you for another year of supporting state parks and historic sites. Your input and feedback are important to us as we strive to provide a quality state park system. We look forward to another year and are committed to making 2013 the best year yet. I hope you will join us on this journey.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Bill Bryan, Director
