Why not rebuild a State Park lodge?
We have the opportunity to bring a first-class hotel to Alabama, attracting larger convention groups back to Alabamas Gulf Coast that are currently going to Gulf destinations in other states. The new facility will be a great adjunct to the crown jewel of the State Park system and an economic engine for our State and the Gulf Shores/Orange Beach area. The project also allows Auburn University to advance and expand student learning opportunities through Gulf State Park and DCNR programs.
