The chosen site is State Forest property that is currently leased to the South Mountain Golf Course.
The new RMC will improve services in the South Mountain Conservation Landscape by better serving district forest needs, residents, and visitors.
As a gateway to the forest, the new RMC will enhance forest user engagement and serve as a teaching and demonstration center for residents and visitors.
Unfortunately, Michaux State Forest’s decision is being challenged. Please join us in showing support for their decision!
See why Michaux chose this location (and we support it) in this FAQ document.
