Thank you for your interest in the Ginkgo Petrified Forest State Park Classification and Management Planning (CAMP) process.
State Parks started the CAMP process in January 2019. Stage 1 - Issues Identification – included outreach to interested parties and a public meeting on February 13, 2020. Materials and comments are posted below.
Stage 2 – Explore Alternative Approaches-- continued through December 2021. A virtual public meeting was held on December 8 to hear questions and comments about three different themes for the future management and development of Ginkgo. Click here for a recording of the meeting. Meeting materials and comments are posted below, along with additional information requested at the meeting.
State Parks will review the feedback and develop a preliminary recommendation in the next month or so. Another public meeting will be scheduled for feedback before a final recommendation is developed for consideration by the Washington Parks and Recreation Commission.
