Echoes of South Florida celebrated Everglades National Park's 50th Anniversary with a weekly newsletter entitled The Everglade Magazine. Beginning with the geological formation of the region, this vehicle for the interpretation and promotion of the nation's most imperiled natural resource will cover human influence, the formation of Evergaldes National Park, and present day restoration efforts. There are as many angles to the story of the Everglades as there are blades of sawgrass in its 4.3 million acre wilderness. Read about these stories and more in Echoes of South Florida's - The Everglade Magazine
The Everglade Magazine was a full-color weekly (50 issues) newsletter that provided a historical perspective on the 50th Anniversary of Everglades National Park.
