In 1992, so many peo­ple across Alabama worked so hard to autho­rize our state land trust, For­ever Wild. Now, 18 years later, more than 200,000 acres are avail­able for pub­lic recre­ation and preser­va­tion across our state because of For­ever Wild.

I think about the folks who were ardent sup­port­ers in For­ever Wild’s infancy, like my friend the late Mr. Bill Ire­land, and how they would be proud to see For­ever Wild’s many suc­cesses and the sig­nif­i­cant sup­port it con­tin­ues to receive since their efforts. For­ever Wild is up for reau­tho­riza­tion in 2012, and we are work­ing now to build sup­port. Sup­port your state land trust – For­ever Wild!
