Jonathan Dickinson State Park Needs YOU!
Our beloved JD State Park is at a crossroads, and your voice matters now more than ever! This unique natural gem is not just a haven for wildlife, but a crucial place where future generations can learn about Florida’s natural environment and it's Home to the Dunes 50K Ultra.
Unfortunately, plans are in motion that could alter the park’s future. The Acquisition Restoration Council and the Governor are making decisions on projects that could dramatically change the park's landscape, focusing on expanding public access, recreation, and even new lodging options.
While progress is important, we must preserve the wild beauty and integrity of JD State Park. Protecting it ensures that future generations can experience the same breathtaking scenery and learn about Florida’s rich ecosystems, just as we have.
