Special Use Permits

Special Use Permits are issued for short-term activities that provide a benefit to an individual, group, or organization rather than the public at large.

These activities require some degree of management if there is a potential for interference with visitor use, congestion of a highly visited area, or possible impact on park resources.

Examples include weddings, family reunions, church services, first-amendment demonstrations, political events, public assemblies, and other ceremonies.

If you wish to obtain a special use permit for an activity not displayed below or to determine if your proposed activity requires a permit, please email [e-mail] with the subject line "Attn: Special Use Permits." Applications and payment must be submitted a minimum of 90 days prior to the event to be considered.
