Overview
Moraine Preservation Fund (MPF) is a non-profit organization staffed by volunteers who are dedicated to supporting Moraine State Park. They champion wildlife restoration projects like Project BATitat, the Osprey and Barn Owl Reintroduction Programs, and even created a Native Plant & Butterfly Trail near the Gift Shop.
Want to explore the park further? MPF operates both the Owlet Gift Shop, conveniently located at McDanel's Boat Launch (off the North Shore exit on Rt. 422 in Portersville), and Preston's Pearl, an enclosed pontoon boat with an upper deck offering interpretive tours, and dinner tours of Lake Arthur.
Climb aboard Preston's Pearl! Throughout the summer, this unique vessel provides public tours and chartered cruises, all led by a knowledgeable captain and first mate who will share fascinating insights about the park's wildlife, geology, and the history of Lake Arthur itself.
