Friends of Wilderness Park
Vue d'ensemble
Friends of Wilderness Park are residents of Lincoln and surrounding areas who are concerned with the encroachment of development upon Wilderness Park. Our mission is to promote the creation of statutes, rules and regulations that will allow the long term sustainability of Wilderness Park and the other natural areas within the Lincoln area. Encourage and conduct biological surveys within Wilderness Park to keep the public informed of the status of its plants, resident and migratory animals, and to identify rare, endangered or threatened species. Monitor governmental entities and their policies as they effect Wilderness Park and other natural areas within the Lincoln area, with the objective of preserving ecological values at all times. Defend Wilderness Park and surrounding area from public policies that will dilute its values. Educate developers to use ecologically sound and economically feasible ways to maintain and preserve natural conditions of development sites rather than destroying and subsequently attempting to recreate “natural” conditions. Work with governmental agencies and property owners adjacent to Wilderness Park to maintain buffer zones around Wilderness Park and increase the size of Wilderness Park, either through private trust or through public purchase of additional park land. Study other sites within the Lincoln area for potential natural area preservation and inclusion within the total park holdings of Lancaster County.
