Designed in collaboration with county officials and a team of engineering consultants by Vero Beach Stormwater Engineer Keith McCully.
The dual-purpose sanctuary serves as a water treatment area for the Indian River Lagoon and a recreational resource to the public for the purpose of hiking, jogging, bird-watching,  and other nature-loving intents. There are nearly four miles of dedicated hiking trails to enjoy.
