Preservation does not mean the land is “off-limits.” Our vision for these 204 acres, in partnership with Galveston Independent School district, will provide:
- Three miles of low-impact nature trails with interpretive signage
- Activity trunks and curricula for 4th-grade teachers, teaching the island’s history, geology, and ecology through a local lens
- Community access to diverse habitats via curated and managed trails
Funds for this next step will be sought separately, so stay tuned for opportunities to help in this manner, too. The Preserve currently provides opportunities for families to participate in guided tours, citizen science, and volunteer stewardship, as well as dedicated grant funds to support youth Eco-Art Kayak and Walking Adventures and other facilitated programming, ensuring every child in Galveston can experience hands-on science and art.
