Advocating for the protection of our dunes
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT
The Saugatuck Dunes Coastal Alliance was incorporated in the spring of 2007 as a 501c3 nonprofit organization in response to imminent threats to the Saugatuck Dunes and Kalamazoo River mouth area—part of the largest and most significant freshwater dunes in the world.
Since our founding, committed individuals, philanthropists, organizations, and government agencies have worked together to protect and preserve the 171-acre Saugatuck Dunes Natural Area, the 122-acre Tallmadge Woods, and the 22-acre McEnroe Conservation Easement. We continue to educate, collaborate, and advocate to stop the many threats to the ecological, cultural, and historic values of the Dunes and River Mouth.
We invite you to add your voice to ours. Join the Coastal Alliance, sign up for our newsletter, and follow us on social media to stay informed about efforts to protect and preserve the Wild Heart of Saugatuck.
Thank you for your support,
David Swan
President, Board of Directors
