[edit] Guana River State Park
According to [www.wildernet.com/pages/area.cfm?areaid=FLSPGu www.wildernet.com/pages/area.cfm?areaid=FLSPGu,] Guana River State Park is no longer a state park. Do we need to delete it and its entry on the List, etc. Mikereichold 21:42, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- The story on the Wildernet site seems a bit confusing. Guana River may have lost its designation as a state park. It is now a management area in the Guana-Tolomato-Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve, a joint federal-state project managed by the state.[1] Faver-Dykes State Park and Washington Oaks Garden State Park are also management areas within the GTMNERR, so I'm not sure what the significance of dropping "State Park" from the Guana River name is. -- Dalbury(Talk) 22:45, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
- Their is only one official site that should be consulted regarding state parks. [2] Look at the drop down listings for parks; Guana River State Park is not listed. It is correctly noted that it is managed by the state, but the state manages many areas that are not state parks. In addition, Dead Lakes State Recreation Area is no longer a state park. If we are to make this article accurate (and using the state's own information as our basis) then these two parks need to be removed.
