Lopez Welcome Card

Lopezians are so fortunate to live in paradise. Every year, more and more visitors are coming to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of our beloved island. This creates more strain on our natural resources, especially water, and more impact to our fragile environment.

We have created a folksy welcome card from the locals, with interesting facts and some suggestions of how to tread lightly on the land. With a backdrop of Nancy Bingham's gorgeous artwork featuring local flora and fauna, this 6 x 9" card can be taken home as a momento.

We believe that if our visitors understand the unique nature of islands and how precious our resources are, they will be more inclined to help steward our natural environment. If we treat them as our guests rather than tourists, we believe they will respond in kind. We have all been visitors somewhere, and it's nice to feel welcome.

Our intention is to distribute this card to the ferry landing, vacation rental properties, public parks and local businesses. Last summer, Lopez had over 90,000 visitors. 

Thank you so much for your support!
