Welcome to the official website of the Presque Isle Partnership!
Our Mission
The mission of the Presque Isle Partnership is to enhance the Presque Isle visitors' experience by developing, funding and implementing projects and programs on the Park, while protecting the natural environment.
About the Partnership
The Presque Isle Partnership began in 1994 in an effort to make Presque Isle State Park a better park for everyone. The organization works to improve the environment and educate the public on the value of the park's delicate ecosystem. Since we began, we have raised funds for a variety of enhancement projects at Presque Isle. All the energy of the Partnership is focused on making Presque Isle State Park the best park it can be, to make your experience at Presque Isle the most enjoyable.
