The Lion’s Den Gorge Nature Preserve is an “ecological jewel” within the Ozaukee County park system.
Be sure to learn about Ozaukee Washington Land Trust’s work to acquire Cedar Gorge/Clay Bluffs for a new Ozaukee preserve for us all to enjoy. If you possibly can, please donate or pledge to donate what you can afford to help with this effort. Together we can make this happen.
All of our partners will miss seeing you this year, but you can visit them at their websites. Take a little time and see what they are up to.
