This is just the start of our celebration! Our 40th Anniversary celebration takes root during Earth Week with a special Earth Day reception, honoring decades of conservation, education, and community. As summer blooms, we’ll highlight the Preserve’s impact with a mid-season feature, sharing stories and milestones. Then, we’ll close out the celebration during Homecoming Weekend in September with an Anniversary Open House—a morning of children’s activities, trail time, and the chance to reconnect with former staff and friends. Join us as we reminisce, reflect, and celebrate 40 years of stewardship and wonder!
