New Treasures.

The Embrace Open Space campaign currently features 15 sites across the metro area that represent the kinds of open spaces we need to protect from development—including five new sites we've just identified on this page.

These five places are already at risk, but every citizen can speak up on their behalf and support groups trying to preserve them. Click on our map to see for yourself what treasures they really are, and how you can help!

And follow the link below to learn more about the campaign's original 10 Treasures, including progress made and challenges faced in their protection throughout the campaign.
