Sunday Stewardship at Little Red Rock
Little Red Rock is a culturally significant and sensitive area. To help preserve and protect it, NVFCP hosts Stewardship Sunday events, where volunteers join us in ongoing conservation efforts.
Our primary focus is locating and addressing debris, graffiti, and other damage in the area. A clean and well-maintained site communicates that this is a place of value—one to be respected, not vandalized or misused.
We also install and manage custom carsonite markers to inform visitors about the area's cultural importance and provide guidance on how they can help protect it for future generations.
Activities during Stewardship Sundays may vary. Volunteers who RSVP will receive updates and detailed information about their specific outing.

Teams MeetingDeveloping the Valley of Fire Interpretation
Speaker Series Presentation by Kayla Wolfe
Take a virtual tour of Valley of Fire State Park’s new Visitor Center, opened November 2025, with Park Interpreter, Kayla Wolfe. We’ll explore the new exhibits, focusing on the thought process behind their concepts and design. By honoring the interests of guests, knowledge of professionals, and needs of the park’s history and wildlife, the team at Valley of Fire was able to create an interactive space that captures the magnificence of, and inspires stewardship for, the surrounding landscape. We’re excited to give viewers a deeper look into the thoughtful consideration given to each educational display.
