Over 200 people attended the Southern Colorado Conservation Awards, which took place at the Antler's Hilton Hotel in downtown Colorado Springs. Four awards were presented.
1. The Stewardship Award went to Dave Van Manen and the Mountain Park Environmental Center, located in Beulah, Colorado, for the Center's far reaching efforts that have imbued an ethic of conservation stewardship in thousands of children and adults.
2. The Friends of Open Space Award went to Reeves and Betsy Brown of the 3R Ranch, also in Beulah, for their diverse roles in protecting important agricultural lands across southern Colorado and advancing the cause of Holistic Range Management.
3. The Cheyenne Mountain Zoo, in Colorado Springs, won The Innovation in Conservation Award for its pioneering Quarters for Conservation program.
4. Judy Sellers won The Stuart P. Dodge Award for conservation achievements spanning local, state, national, and international landscapes.
Congratulations to all the winners! We really appreciate this great honor and thank the Palmer Land Trust for The Innovation in Conservation Award.
