We operate as a nonprofit 5013(c)3 corporation that supports everything Lovers Key. Our mission is to Protect, Preserve, and Support Lovers Key State Park.
In 1996, the Lovers Key Recreational Area merged with Carl E. Johnson County Park, and Lovers Key State Park was born. Friends of Lovers Key incorporated during this same time as a non-profit organization.
