ABOUT US
Save Open Space (SOS) is a nonprofit organization that works to create responsible open space
stewardship through public events and education. In response to the demands of our evergrowing regional
population, SOS calls for preserving and creating more natural open spaces and parkland. Our primary
focus concerns the protection of the natural and scenic features of the Dallas region, such as rivers, creeks,
floodplains, woodlands and prairies and their wildlife habitats, from poorly planned urbanization.
The Members of Save Open Space come from throughout the Dallas area and from all occupations and backgrounds. We are
conservationists, educators, developers, economists, architects,planners, engineers, community volunteers, and others
who want to save open space.

WHAT WE DO
Since 1971, SOS has worked to develop solutions to serve the needs of area residents. We work
in citizen task forces and at educational gatherings with our members and elected officials to develop solutions
that serve the needs of area residents by fostering thoughtful, sustainable communities. Through eduction and
prudent advocacy, Save Open Space has helped preserve more than 3,000 acres of natural space for future generations.
We meet monthly to stay abreast of current initiatives.
