This is a unique geologic feature in our “backyard” that should be preserved.

This should stay a historical sight

Please keep this area open! Education and the locations field adventures are taught are disappearing and vital to student success!

I support preservation of this park for historical and geological education purposes

As a Professor Emeritus, SUNY Plattsburgh I recall taking many students to Starks Knob and it’s preservation as a public access park is important.

Return Stark's Knob Geology park to the NYS Regents.

Stark's Knob is a unique geological and historical site visited by thousands of students. It needs to be be preserved as an open access site for future generations.

I an Earth Science Teacher with the Vestal School District a believe that keeping this important site protected and preserved will allow it to be used to enhance the education of current and future generations

I visited this site several times on geology field trips with both Hartwick College and Binghamton University. It is an important site to our local NY geology and some of the few areas to see igneous rocks in NYS. As a current public high school earth science educator in Vestal, NY, and a woman in science, I believe this site should be preserved and restored for the use of educational groups- not only because of its geological significance, but also for its early connections to Women in STEM!
