The West Klosterman Preserve has been saved.
On April 10, Pinellas County bought the WKP from Pinellas County Schools. The purchase was funded by a commitment of
$1.5 million from the WK Preservation Group and $1.5 million from Pinellas County.
The County will own the property and join it with the Mariner's Point Management Area so that this important slice of paradise
remains a permanent home to the plants, trees, and animals that have always lived there.
Now the WK Preservation Group is doing due diligence on our next candidate project, and when we complete that work,
we expect to be announcing the new project and launching the campaign to save another slice of paradise in Pinellas County.
Your donation now will help us confirm and launch the new campaign..
WK PRESERVATION GROUP is a Non-profit 501 (c) (3) group located in Pinellas County, Florida. Our mission is to stop the destruction of natural habitat in Pinellas County and the Tampa Bay area that is rapidly disappearing to development, and failure is not an option.
