Welcome to Save Our
Shoreline's Home Page
Save Our Shoreline is
a non-profit, grass roots organization of property owners and
others committed to the preservation of riparian rights along
Michigan's 3288 miles of Great Lakes shoreline. We invite you to explore
this site to see what we are doing to preserve those rights.
We have provided a
narrative summary which describes our
activities. Current
efforts have focused on preserving ownership to the water's
edge, preserving the right to groom Michigan's traditional public and
private recreational beaches, and protecting Michigan's public beaches
from federal encroachment. SOS depends on its membership dues
and donations for continued funding.
Please consider joining us!
