DISCOVER THE POWER OF PARKS

Come explore the natural heritage of New Hampshire with us!

The Discover the Power of Parks, a partnership between the Student Conservation Association (SCA), AmeriCorps, NH State Parks, and Eversource Energy, is a program that connects participants with nature and builds appreciation for New Hampshire's unmatched natural heritage. Programs are offered statewide in the parks starting in late June and are offered through October.

Programs have ended, but check out the educational and very interesting illustrated Blogs written by the SCA Rangers over the summer. You are sure to learn something new! Read the Blogs
