Friends of New River Gorge is a nonprofit that partners with the NPS to care for the parklands of the New River Gorge area (the New, Gauley, and Bluestone).  This place is like no other. We believe that together we can gather, promote and develop a community of competent land stewards.  We currently support, and will be initiating new, efforts to engage friends of the parklands in caring for the parks they love.

See how you can work with the Friends to help protect and make accessible the wonderful lands around us.

Bats of the New River Gorge

Do you love bats or want to learn more?

NPS Wildlife Biologist, Lindsay H, will be discussing the local bats that reside in the area, their impact, and how we can help them out with conservation efforts and reporting bat sightings. This is a great opportunity to learn about these often-misunderstood creatures and the important role they play in our ecosystem. Attendees will also receive tips on how to safely observe and document bats in their natural habitat.
