Project Description
The project will enhance Clower Thornton Park through the installation of new trail/boardwalks and other amenities such as educational kiosks and signage. New eco-friendly interior walking trails will intersect and traverse the interior of the park. The project will improve the connection between communities and natural resources and will ultimately strengthen the community's stewardship of coastal Gulf resources that were injured, and therefore, inaccessible during the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
