Robbins, House and Small Building Plans, Energy Management & Alternatives Environmentally Concerned Organization of Students, Northern Kentucky University Split Rock Conservation Park Northern Kentucky is developing rapidly and the ultimate cost of that development is in our land and natural resources. Every year more land in our community is swallowed up by the demands of an increasing population. Nearby and convenient access to natural areas where students can safely experience and learn about nature is almost non-existent. Students of all ages need opportunities to explore the outdoors, learn about local biodiversity and gain the experience to make informed decisions for future development. The concept for Split Rock Conservation Park is to utilize the local biodiversity and history as an educational resource and to promote sound conservation practices. Programs and experiences offered by Split Rock Conservation Park will promote outdoor exploration and conservation of natural resources while complementing Kentucky's educational curriculum standards.
