About Us

We are a growing collective of people and organizations who object to the plan to remove over 1,200 trees from our National Parks to rehabilitate the Rock Creek Park golf course.

We believe the golf course can be rehabilitated in a more thoughtful, inclusive, pragmatic, and environmentally sound way that preserves the ecosystems of the park.

We believe the youth whom the project claims to benefit should be engaged in redesigning the plan.

If your organization wants to join this campaign, please enter your details here.

Together, we can preserve this space for future generations.
