2025 Annual Gathering

Join us for Fun & Fellowship!

The Florida Park Service Ranger Association will gather at Lake Louisa State Park near Clermont for our 36th Annual Gathering. We encourage everyone to reach out to folks who haven’t attended a gathering in a while and to reconnect with their FPS family.  Our General Business meeting will discuss the status of the Association and the plans we have for the coming year. We are excited to host the fourth Park Ranger of the Year award presentation and look forward to hosting the district awardees. 

The Arnold Kuenzler & Family Auction, started in the 1990s, is named for Arnold, Aggie & Kim who donated countless hand-crafted objects through the years. Hand-crafted objects and collectibles are still donated each year and serve as one of the major fundraisers for the Ranger Association’s James A. Cook Humanitarian Relief Fund which directly benefits past and present FPS staff.  The Auction also serves as great entertainment. Arnold served as our entertaining Auctioneer for many years and that tradition continues. 

You don’t have to be a member to attend but once you see what good deeds the organization performs you will want to join.
