Dear Friend of the National Parks,
 Join NPCA in
celebrating as the National Park Service and U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers break ground on a new bridge along the Tamiami Trail,
just north of Everglades National Park in Miami-Dade
County. The Tamiami Trail acts as a dam, stopping water
from flowing into Everglades National Park and Florida Bay. As a
result, the park is starved for water, causing the decline of
the park's wading bird and wildlife habitat, and its unique
landscape.
Twenty years in the making, this
groundbreaking represents an important step forward in
restoration. A one-mile bridge will allow more water to flow
south into Everglades National Park, improving conditions for
wildlife. This is an opportunity to recognize the start of this
important project, and you're invited to join
us.

WHEN: December 4, 1:30
