 On
Monday, August 23, 1999, the Innsbrook Resort
Community became the first business of its kind
in the continental United States to be certified
as a cooperative sanctuary by Audubon International.
Innsbrook has a relationship with
nature that's been crucial to its success. Now
Innsbrook's rededication to nature is being celebrated
at an international level. In 1997, the Innsbrook
Resort Community and the Innsbrook Golf Course
enrolled in a program through Audubon International
to work toward becoming a certified a Audubon
Sanctuary.
Innsbrook horticulturist Keith Thompson
instigated the program for the Innsbrook Resort,
while golf superintendent Ed Wachter started the
program for the golf course. They have been assisted
by a large group of Innsbrook property owners
and employees.

Wildlife Inventory Program
Innsbrook is bustling with wildlife,
and you can help us keep track of our feathered
and four-legged friends by keeping a wildlife
inventory sheet. On this sheet, you are
to list all wildlife and their offspring, the
date you encountered them, and the location within
Innsbrook. You can return this sheet to
the Conference Center Front Desk when it is full,
or quarterly on January 1, April 1, July 1 and
October 1. The information we receive is used
to estimate the number of a particular species,
track their movements and alert us to any unusual
population growth or decline. We appreciate
your assistance in the Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary
Program at Innsbrook.
