Welcome!
Welcome to Anacortes Parks Foundation's website! Since our beginning in 1994 we have spent 2.4 million of donated dollars on Fidalgo and Guemes Islands and are often asked to describe our foundation. Hopefully from our website you will learn more about what we do, and perhaps participate in our programs.
The website has been designed so that you'll know what we're doing, and what we've done to satisfy recreational and leisure-time activity needs in our area. We've also partnered with the City of Anacortes, Skagit County, and other agencies to display most recreational facilities and programs that are available to residents and visitors on Fidalgo and Guemes Islands. You'll find that in our Parks List section.
Three new Trustees were recently appointed to the Board. Read the news release here.
