³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Florida was founded in 1900 in the fight to save the Everglades’ wading birds from extinction. Today, it is a privilege to carry on the 122-year ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ legacy by continuing to work to protect and restore the Everglades.
"³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ has advocated for the protection and restoration of Everglades National Park for 75 years, and today, it is a privilege to celebrate the long road we’ve traveled together with agency, tribal, elected, and NGO partners," said Kelly Cox, director of Everglades policy for ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ Florida. "Everglades National Park is a sanctuary for birds and people alike and we are proud to have been involved in the creation of the park and its continued protection," she added.
³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ is excited to see the new Visitor Center — named for ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ game warden Guy Bradley — come on-line and looks forward to the next 75 years of partnership with Everglades National Park. We helped celebrate this important milestone for Everglades National Park by attending the re-dedication ceremony in Flamingo on December 3.
