SORRY FOLKS....
We have become aware that on Sunday, March 31, the NJ Herald inadvertently advertised in their "Local" section, the Basic Self-defense Workshop offered by the Friends of High Point State Park as taking place Monday, April 1.
However, the workshop took place as scheduled on Saturday, March 30. We apologize for any confusion and inconvenience this error may have caused. The Friends of High Point State Park hope to offer this workshop again in the future.
Thank you for your interest in our programs. Please visit our Save the Date - Upcoming Programs and Events page for our 2013 program calendar. We hope to see you on the mountain again soon!

Music on the Mountain CD
The Friends of High Point State Park have brought many musicians to the mountain over the years, each with their own style, but all with hearts of gold.
It is with great pride that we present our first compilation CD featuring groups and individuals who have generously shared their talents in performances at High Point State Park.
Music on the Mountain may be purchased at the High Point State Park office and Friends of High Point State Park events.
