Coming Events

First State, First Day, First Hike

Join Delaware State Parks in celebrating the first day of the New Year with a refreshing hike in the park. Parks statewide will host a First State, First Day, First Hike program to celebrate the national movement sponsored by America’s State Parks to have all 50 states offer First Day Hikes.

28th Annual Beach Grass Planting

Saturday, March 18, 2017, 9 a.m.-Noon. Each March since 1990, many dedicated volunteers have helped DNREC to build and protect Delaware’s sand dunes by planting Cape American beach grass on Delaware’s ocean and Delaware Bay beaches. Their efforts have been very successful in helping to reestablish the vegetation along our coastline. Our plan is to plant beach grass in various bare areas, to help stabilize existing dunes so that they may continue to grow.

Movie + A Stay Getaway

Kick back and relax with a movie night and a seaside getaway at Indian River Marina! Enjoy a 25% discount on any weeknight stay at the beautiful Cottages of Indian River Marina, located on the inlet at Delaware Seashore State Park, and receive a gift card for four adult tickets to the Movies at Midway.

Get Involved!

Volunteer Opportunities at DNREC

DNREC has a variety of volunteer opportunities for both individuals and groups. There are many ways to make a difference. Working together, we can help maintain Delaware's natural resources for generations to come!
