John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park in Key Largo recently held a dedication ceremony and first walk on the newly reopened Mangrove Boardwalk. Sponsored by the Friends of John Pennekamp and Dagny Johnson, members of the Pennekamp family were joined by park officials, the Key Largo Chamber of Commerce, the Monroe County Tourist Development Council, and Mote Marine park partners. Pennekamp siblings Thomas, Cathy and Pat were particularly happy to be there because the original boardwalk was a pet project of their dad, John Pennekamp Jr. DREW MARTIN/Contributed
