A Message From the Chair

The past year has been one of significant accomplishments and some major firsts for the Indian River Land Trust. We take pride in sharing these firsts with you because you were integral in making them possible.

First Public Dedication - Through the generosity of Northern Trust Company and the family of the late John K. Moore, Jr., we opened the John K. and Patricia S. Moore Park. This neighborhood "pocket park" at the southeastern intersection of A1A and Causeway Boulevard near the foot of the Alma Lee Loy Memorial Bridge now greets barrier island residents and visitors and is a perpetually maintained garden respite.

First Major Gift of Conservation Land - In May 2012, we completed the transfer of a privately owned 130 acre parcel that comprises the northern end of Pine Island in the Indian River Lagoon This parcel, along with 60 acres purchased at auction, places over 190 acres of conservation land in trust, protecting an extraordinary wading bird habitat.

First Major Federal Conservation Grant - Last spring the Indian River Land Trust received notification through the US Fish and Wildlife Service under the North American Wetlands Conservation Act, that our application for a $1 million grant to assist with the permanent protection of Bee Gum Point was approved. Bee Gum Point is a 111-acre bird sanctuary located directly along the Atlantic Flyway in the Indian River Lagoon. Prior to its being acquired by the Land Trust, it was the largest remaining parcel of unprotected land on the barrier island.

With your generous support, the Land Trust has now placed in conservation over 625 acres along the Indian River Lagoon encompassing over six miles of shoreline.We commend you and thank you for helping us make this vision of the Indian River Land Trust a reality.

Even though we proudly celebrate these successes with you, our window of opportunity is narrowing and our work is not done.We continue to identify strategically important Lagoon shoreline properties for conservation. We hope you will continue to support us in the protection of those properties and that you will share your enthusiasm throughout our community.

Sincere best wishes,

William H. Helmly Chairman

625 Acres of Natural Habitat containing over 6 miles of Lagoon Shoreline

With the value of Lagoon shoreline properties at a generational low, the IRLT Board of Directors recognized a historic opportunity to make a lasting impact in our community. The parcels described here represent the LandTrust's astounding accomplishments to date.

Toni Robinson Waterfront Trail

Two parcels purchased by the land trust in 2009 make up theWaterfrontTrail.These parcels opened up a 40-acre block of conservation land containing live oaks and other local flora and fauna.

Quay Dock Kayak Launch

This four-acre parcel of conservation land on the west side of the Lagoon is located at the end of Quay Dock Road, a historic wagon road used by early settlers.

IRLT Salt Marsh

This 47-acre conservation area contains the last remaining intact high salt marsh in Indian River County and one?quarter mile of Lagoon shoreline. This property is adjacent to Spoonbill Marsh, a man-made marsh managed by the County.

Bee Gum Point

Situated on the Atlantic Flyway, a critically important corridor for millions of migrating birds, this 111acre property contained one of the largest blocks of unprotected land on the barrier island. It encompasses one mile of Lagoon shoreline and several interior ponds that provide food and shelter for a variety of migrating and resident bird species.

Lagoon Greenway

The IRLT spearheaded a public/ private partnership to establish a recreational and educational trail system on 187 acres of conservation land, including 66 acres acquired by the LandTrust in the 1990s.

South Vero Conservation Area

In 2011, the LandTrust purchased 185 acres located on the west side of the Indian River Lagoon.The property contains tropical oak hammocks, wetlands and ponds as well as a mile of Lagoon shoreline.

" By maintaining natural vegetation along the shore, IRLT is helping to protect the Lagoon from polluted runoff. I hope they keep doing what they are doing."

Pine Island: Our First Donation

The LandTrust acquired a 60-acre Lagoon shoreline property on Pine Island in March 2012, at auction. Pine Island just south of theWabasso Bridge was also the site of a donation of an important 130-acre property. This donation, along with the 60-acres, has allowed the LandTrust to assemble 190-acres of wading bird habitat!

IRLT introduces Rody Johnson ? Bee Gum Point Steward

Rody Johnson moved to Vero as a child and was raised on 20 acres west of town across the road from Waldo Sexton's home and dairy. He grew up fishing the Indian River and hunting and fishing the inland marshes.

With his children he fished the Bee Gum ponds in the 1960s before John's Island was developed. The area has been familiarly known in his family as the "The Tarpon Hole" for the large quantity of tarpon that were trapped within the mosquito impoundment. He recalls the great number and variety of water birds that inhabited the area including his once seeing a flock of roseate spoonbills presumably performing a mating dance at sunset.

Rody is a graduate of the University of Virginia and spent most of his career with the Harris Corporation in Melbourne. He was later publisher of the Sebastian Sun newspaper. He is the author of four books, two of which pertain to the local area: "The Rise and Fall of Dodgertown" and "Different Battles," the latter about a U-boat attack off Vero in 1942.

He has been a director of the Laura Riding Jackson Foundation, the Sebastian River Chamber of Commerce, The Indian River Historical Society, and the Vero Beach Art Club.

Welcome Rody, pictured with son Charlie and grandsons: Will, Mac and Bo.

Moore Park is Dedicated

The John K. and Patricia S. Moore Park donated by NorthernTrust was dedicated on April 27, 2012. The Board of Directors of the LandTrust decided to accept the property donation to ensure it would remain as a green swath of land welcoming residents crossing the 17th Street Bridge or traveling north or south on Hwy A1A. The ATM kiosk was removed by Northern Trust and the land was donated to the LandTrust in December 2011. Following the donation of the property, several members of the Moore family donated funds to assist with maintenance of the property.
