Sesquicentennial history quiz
Which state park did President Eisenhower visit? Which one has a 54-foot tower? Each week throughout our 2008 Sesquicentennial of Statehood year, we'll feature a new and interesting historic state park photo and a question that relates to it. Test your knowledge of Minnesota history and take the quiz now or read more about it in the news release.

Protect our trees from bad bugs - don't move firewood
To help control the spread of the emerald ash borer, an insect pest that is devastating ash trees in Canada and nearby states, we ask that you do not bring firewood from your home area to use in any Minnesota State Park, State Forest or other Department of Natural Resources facility.
When camping or picnicking at any of these facilities, please purchase your firewood from a local vendor or the park.
Thank you in advance for your help in protecting our forests and neighborhood trees. More information
