Watch the Conservation Celebration!

Big thanks to everyone who took part in our virtual Conservation Celebration on August 24! Between the virtual event and the online auction, you raised over $90,000 for conservation. Your gifts go far to protect our precious mountains, rivers, foothills, and farms.

You can still watch the Conservation Celebration online. It’s a one-hour virtual event where you can explore:

  • Latest conservation project updates
  • Conservation solutions to the climate crisis
  • The new Flying Squirrel Outdoor Challenge
  • Conservation burial
  • The new Youngs Mountain Trail near Lake Lure
  • AmeriCorps Project Conserve
  • A musical performance by Woody Platt of the Steep Canyon Rangers and his wife, Shannon Whitworth
  • A powerful keynote address by conservation leader Jay Leutze

Thank you for being part of all this great conservation work!
