The sun was shining, the bidding was lively, and once again our incredible community showed up — rain or shine, busy weekend or not — to support the protection of open space.

We are deeply grateful to our sponsors, donors, and friends for making the Great Outdoors Celebration & Auction such a success. Your generosity keeps our mission not just alive, but thriving. Because of you, we can look ahead to another year of:

  1. Preserving wildlife habitat
  2. Protecting our fields and coastlines
  3. Beginning construction and reopening the beloved Yawgoo Trail
  4. Keeping our trails open for everyone who needs a little nature in their day.

 

A simple “thank you” hardly captures our excitement for what’s ahead. Stay tuned for the fall and winter projects and events we’ve been preparing — we can’t wait to share them with you!
