Welcome to the Friends of Lapham Peak
The FLP was founded in 1989 as a nonprofit group dedicated to supporting and promoting the Kettle Moraine State Forest - Lapham Peak Unit. Our activities include sponsoring, supporting, and running events, fundraising for projects, and offering additional services to park visitors while also helping the DNR's personnel. We are located 3/4 mile south of I-94 on County Hwy C (Delafield exit #285), Delafield, Wisconsin. For donation options, please see member information and Donations. We have teams dedicated to:
- Memorials,
- our Butterfly Garden, and more.
