The Friends Receive a Green Bay Packers Foundation Award

The Friends are pleased to announce that we have received a $3,000 grant award from the Green Bay Packers Foundation! This award puts us another step closer to acquiring the funding necessary to complete the 320-foot third phase of the total planned 1,048-foot boardwalk infrastructure project at Beaver Hollow. This 320-foot boardwalk extension will leave at a 90-degree angle from the new boardwalk section installed this fall (pictured above), travel east through a wetland forest, and end at a platform along a beaver pond. This addition will allow visitors to experience, first-hand, a high-functioning wetland forest, and observe a variety of captivating wildlife species, such as ducks, geese, swans, songbirds, otter, and beaver, from the viewing platform overlooking the large beaver pond. This extension project will provide access to an additional, and different, wetland habitat type, and enhance the experience of visitors on the Beaver Hollow boardwalk trail!
