Cocktails & Trails is Friday, August 4, 2023. Join us for a fun night where friends and nature meet.  Cocktails, hors d’oeuvres, and games will keep you entertained as you make your way along the trail from the Carolyn Hardcastle Bridge to the Cavern Nite Club.

Every dollar you contribute — through tickets, sponsorship, game play, membership, and/or the silent auction — supports nature education, park trails, and the conservation of the seven natural ecosystems within the 72-acre park! Thank you in advance! We can’t wait to see you there.

Follow Lost River Cave’s Facebook page to keep up with all event updates including ticket sales announcements.

Not only will you have an amazing time at this event – sipping cocktails, snacking on hors d’oeuvres, and playing games like chuck-a-duck, plinko, and bourbon toss – you’ll be making a difference all the while.

Fundraising events at Lost River Cave help fund the park. Lost River Cave is a 501c3 non-profit organization started by a passionate group of people who came together to save the cave. Our mission (and the park itself) has grown tremendously since we began in 1990 as has the need for funds to conserve and operate this amazing place.

Events, like Cocktails & Trails, raise money to support nature education and the conservation of the 72-acre park where immersive experiences in nature happen. It takes all of us to provide the park free of charge, conserve and restore the incredible natural resources it contains, and connect kids and the community to nature through onsite education and opportunities.  We are deeply grateful to everyone who helps make it happen and would be honored for you to join us.

Sponsors and VIP Ticket Holders make the most impact! Not only will you get tickets to the event, you’ll:

• Protect the 72-acre park, its 7 natural habitats, and 2 miles of free nature trails
• Preserve the natural and historical resources of Lost River Cave 
• Provide nature programming for children, adults, and families
