Washington State Parks has begun Part 2 of a two-part, long-range planning effort for Fort Worden State Park. The talents, skills and ideas of park stakeholders and partners are needed to help complete this important work. Check back for updated project information.

The entire planning process includes a series of public workshop. There are opportunities for the public to comment at each of the stages and documents will be added below when they are available.


Stage One – Identify issues and concerns

The purpose of this stage is to understand what is important to the park community, what to change or save in the state park. This helps get a sense of the range and type of issues that need to be considered through the planning process.
