Net proceeds go towards Park operation. The shop offers a wide selection of books of interest to the visitor of the Sedona area, the highly popular DVD The Natural Wonders of Sedona – a great gift if you want to share the beauty of Sedona with friends in other parts of the country or world – maps, T-shirts, books on the fauna, flora, geology of the area, and many great gift items for children and adults.
A stop in the gift shop is a perfect ending for your visit to the park. There is no sales tax on your purchase!!

A Tale of Success for the Benefactors.
T
o keep the Park open through June 30, 2011, Yavapai County put up $30,000 and the Benefactors raised $130,000: $15,000 from the City of Sedona, a $10,000 grant from the Sedona Community Foundation, three fund-raising events and many donations, large and small from people who care about the Park. In addition, the Benefactors raised $15,000 from a generous family foundation to finance a part-time ranger to run the Park’s school program. We still need your financial support. Please consider a donation and Click on the MAKE A DONATION tab above.

The Connection School Program Ran at Full Capacity for 2011.
And we up and running for Spring and Fall of 2012!
A record 2,200 students participated in the hands-on field classes in environmental subjects and Volunteers logged over 300 hours teaching the classes – many thank-you cards were received from the grateful students. This program is one of the main reasons the Benefactors strive to keep the Park open: nowhere else in North Arizona can schools send their kids to for an educational experience of this kind! Kids even come from California for this program!
We still need your support though. Please consider a donation for 2012.
(Thank you agin for your past participation.)
