Kiosk Updates at LCNP

In October, Friends of West 11th Street Park (soon to be called Friends of Lorraine Cherry Nature Preserve) sponsored a renovation of the Kiosk at the entrance to the park located on Shelterwood. The roof was replaced, as was the plexiglass door which protects all of the signage on the east side of the kiosk from water damage. All of the weather-beaten, sad signage inside the kiosk plexiglass was replaced as well. If you are interested in butterflies, the Butterfly Identification fold-out for SE Texas is completely new! There are new announcements, and even a rudimentary map so that those who are new to the park can take a picture of the trails before entering. There is a clearly labeled, functioning Lost and Found attached to the side of the Kiosk. Lost items are being found, and we’ve even received a Thank You Letter from someone so happy to get their item back! Please check to see if the item you are missing is there, and please leave any lost items there if you find any in the park. These photos help us show you the love we’ve given the Kiosk. Be sure to check out the back of the kiosk to see which birds have been sighted recently! No plexiglass is needed on that side because it’s fully protected from weather with the roof and the forest behind. If you see something awesome while in the park, be sure to use the attached dry erase marker to let us all know What YOU Saw in the Park!
