I was one of the people who worked in the early 70s to prevent a 13 story hotel and Convention Center and many acres of buildings and pavement from covering Lighthouse Field. I’m sure many folks here in SC feel that we have preserved a small but valuable ecosystem . This is not just a piece of land to be ” Improved” to cater to someone’s desire for a space to indulge their personal hobbies at the price of destroying this ecosystem.

I say leave Lighthouse Field undeveloped. Basketball courts and softball fields aren’t really in the style of the State Parks, they are more things that local parks agencies should provide.

Thank You Ranger Gaudinski, Enlightening and enjoyable at a minimum. Thinking of the earlier developments which did not happen was disturbing as it would have denied me it’s beauty and solace during my younger life. My thoughts for present and future use would to keep it as such…. perhaps walkways exemplifying coastal biodiversity, as learning and living classroom, memorial to the once was here. The openness and wind. Let the young ones come rather than a longer bus ride to “where” no where. It is what is is and should remain with as minimal sophistication and mankindliness as practical. Let the young ones feel it….
