Friends of Kohler-Andrae
An Invitation to Membership

The Friends of Kohler-Andrae Association [exit DNR] is a non-profit support organization of interested persons from all backgrounds dedicated to furthering the interpretive, educational, and visitor service programs of the park.

Kohler-Andrae State Park has a long history of citizen support beginning in 1928 with the donation of property to create Terry Andrae State Park, and again in 1966 with a second donation creating J.M. Kohler State Park. The two parks now total almost 1,000 acres, and the Department of Natural Resources manages them as one park. The Friends of Kohler-Andrae, established in 1987, continues this historical and vital link, joining private and state efforts toward a common goal.
