Overstream and a Site Visit: A Strategy for Public Input on Accessibility

Cumverland island, Georgia is open for suggestions on accessibility. Have a look at the video below and offer them your insights. Notice the ability to add both comments and captioning at Overstream.com


Cumberland Island is Georgia's largest and southernmost barrier island.
Pristine maritime forests, undeveloped beaches and wide marshes whisper the
stories of both man and nature. (
from Park web site)

Recently a group from the Shepherd Center tested the Island's accessibility. That included a 45
minute ferry ride, tour of the Island and time on the beach. The Park
Superintendent and staff would like to make some changes to improve access,
but the Regional office is slow to respond and needs to hear from YOU.
