Established in 1993 through a gift,[1] it is operated as a non-profit outreach program of Auburn University's School of Forestry & Wildlife Sciences. The preserve includes a nature playground,[2] amphitheater, wheel-chair accessible 150-seat multi-level meeting area and fire pit, and a covered educational pavilion.[3] There are interpretive signs along the 30 trails that cover 5 miles, restrooms, and drinking fountains. The KPNC offers environmental education and outreach programs including animal encounters and guided walks, day camps and pre-school programs. The KPNC was established by Dr. Louise Kreher Turner (1914-2012) and her husband Frank Allen Turner, who donated and endowed the property to Auburn University for protection and educational purposes.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|title=The Kreher Preserve & Nature Center|url=http://www.forestry.alabama.gov/Publications/TREASURED_Forest_Magazine/2015_Summer/The%20Kreher%20Preserve%20and%20Nature%20Center%20Where%20Leisure%20Meets%20Learning.pdf|publisher=Forestry Magazine|accessdate=13 December 2017|date=Summer 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Louise Kreher Forest Ecology Preserve to celebrate opening of spider web play structure and picnic area|url=http://www.oanow.com/news/auburn/louise-kreher-forest-ecology-preserve-to-celebrate-opening-of-spider/article_f44cc1ba-01c7-11e6-812b-37cbff201253.html|publisher=OANow.com|accessdate=13 December 2017|date=Apr 13, 2016}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Features|url=http://wp.auburn.edu/preserve/visit/features/|publisher=Louise Kreher Forest Ecology|accessdate=13 December 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=Obituary: Dr. Louise Kreher Turner|url=https://prod2.meaningfulfunerals.net/fh/obituaries/obituary.cfm?o_id=1378196&fh_id=13855|publisher=Jeffcoat-Trant Funeral Home|accessdate=13 December 2017}} External links
