We’re so close—just 185 dollars away from hitting our $1500 goal for this year’s My TN State Park Fundraiser, and the clock is ticking!

Voting ends April 30 at 11:59 PM CST, and North Chick is counting on its biggest fans…aka YOU.

Tennessee State Parks are where some of life’s best memories happen—saying “I do” with mountain views behind you, teaching your grandkids how to cast a line, or soaking up those perfect summer nights under the stars.

Every dollar stays focused on making our parks the best they can be—for today, tomorrow, and the generations exploring them after us.

North Chick has some big things in the works, and your support gets us that much closer.

If this place has ever given you a memory, a moment, or even just a really good hike…now’s the time to give back.

👉 Cast your vote and donate at the link in our bio!

👉 Then share it with a friend who loves Tennessee’s wild places as much as you do!

Let’s finish strong, hit that goal, and keep North Chick climbing to the top! 🌄💛

Check out our Flipper Bend Trailhead renovations!

Earlier this month, we closed Flipper Bend so that construction crews could render some much needed TLC on the trailhead parking lot. Now, more visitors are able to utilize this space!

Reminder that the Montlake Trailhead will be closed for the rest of the year, but our Barker Pounds and Flipper Bend Trailheads are OPEN!
