Monthly Meeting - The Local Face of Advocacy

The lovely green spaces and beaches in Florida continue to attract an increasing number of visitors and new residents. Significant growth can bring additional challenges when conservation and development intersect.

Heather Elko (Audubon Board Member, conservation committee) and Bill Fisk (Space Coast Audubon Chapter President) have been actively involved in local advocacy issues. They will share insights about local issues including Lori Wilson park and State Park property use proposed changes. The group will learn about the impact of citizens being present in public hearings concerning local conservation priorities.

Space Coast Audubon visits many of the local natural spaces on our field trips. Bill and Heather will share highlight some of the hotspots being featured in the Space Coast Birding & Wildlife Festival.
