National Park Service Everglades National Park
EVER AV Equipment Upgrade and Donation Board Installation
I. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE
This project will take place at two visitor centers within Everglades NP: The Ernest F. Coe Visitor Center and the Guy Bradley Visitor Center. There are three phases to this project. The theater at Ernest F. Coe VC shall be updated and replace the outdated system that is starting to fail.
There is a donation board that will be Government Furnished and will need to be installed outside of the theater entrance. Lastly, the multipurpose room at Guy Bradley VC shall be updated to make the system more user friendly for staff and guests to connect with and use.
Everglades National Park “The Everglades spans across 1.5 million acres that stretches over the southern part of Florida, but it easy to access the park’s three main areas. The northern section of the park is accessible via Miami or Everglades City, the southern section is accessible through Homestead.
Visiting the Everglades allows you to explore a vast diversity of flora and fauna in different eco-systems: freshwater sloughs, marl prairies, tropical hammocks, pinelands, cypress, mangrove, coastal lowlands, marine, and estuarine.”
More information is available at:
Basic Information - Everglades National Park (U.S. National Park Service) This project is phased in three parts:
