Friends of Murphys Point Park

Please join us for this 200th anniversary event that is a fundraiser for the Friends of Murphys Point. Call Fall River Restaurant to reserve your spot!

Thanks and congratulations to everyone who came out in frosty conditions to support the Friends of Murphys Point in our first annual Murphys Mica Fun Run! We had a great turnout and lots of positive feedback about the event. Our runners and walkers found the route to be quite lovely as it meandered through the campgrounds, roads and trails. Big thanks to all of our volunteers and the park staff, as well as our sponsors: Barnabe’s, The Cove Restaurant, and the Westport Bamboo Company. Thanks also to the support and advice offered by the good folks at The Running Goat in Perth.
