The Wisconsin Society for Ornithology is closely monitoring a land
development proposal adjacent to the Kohler-Andrae State Park. If accepted,
this proposal will convert 247 acres of pristine Lake Michigan shoreline
habitat and an intact forest remnant containing old-growth American beech
trees into Sheboygan County's fifth golf course. An additional 32 acres of
the existing Kohler-Andrae State Park land will also be developed to
construct four holes of the golf course, thus shrinking the area of the
State Park. This is an important migratory corridor for hawks, waterfowl,
and other bird species. You can learn more about this issue at the Friends
of Black River Forest webpage:
http://www.friendsblackriverforest.org/index.html For those in the
Sheboygan County area, please consider attending the informational meeting
on June 29.
