Curry Todd is among the
supporters of a new legislation of the Wolf River Boat Launch Access Study,
funded by the Shelby County Office of Sustainability, to increase the use and
enjoyment of the Wolf River and provide opportunities to participate in outdoor
recreation, improve safety in and around the River.
The Wolf River Conservancy was
founded in the 1980s, after a citizen-led protest stilled a new gravel mine
that was to be dug along the Wolf River. To safeguard the future safety of the
habitat they created the conservancy, a 501(c) nonprofit, to preserve and
protect the area.
Since first being found in 1985,
the Wolf River Conservancy has grown in staff, resources, and overall
mission. It now has successfully aided
the preservation of 18,000 acres in the Wolf River area; and they are now
protecting the Ghost River State Natural Area, which named after the
disappearing effect the river has as it runs through marsh and swampland.
Curry Todd is also proud of the
Wolf River Conservancy especially for fulfilling the Wolf River Greenway
Project in 2010, which is a corridor of protected green space. The group is
looking to ass a paved pathway along the river that is meant or foot commuters
rather than motorists; and have it stretch 30 miles.
That part of the project
is currently on hold for extended fundraising and land acquisitions that is
much needed for the completion of the project. Todd now hopes to draw extra
support for the group so that this project can be brought to fruition.
