We hope you'll join us at our Annual Dinner this year! We're gathering beginning at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 10, at the Historic Gettysburg Hotel on Lincoln Square in Gettysburg. It's a fun opportunity to visit with like-minded local conservationists, bid on exciting silent auction items—and celebrate the landowners who worked with us to preserve their land in 2015.
Stay tuned for updates to our silent auction items as we gather them! In the meantime, send us your R.S.V.P. by February 25.
We're looking forward to seeing you!

This year's Gettysburg Green Gathering is scheduled for Saturday, May 21, at the Ag Center. This fun and funky gathering of local musicians, food vendors, and environmental educators promotes environmental stewardship and benefits the Land Conservancy (see below), so we hope you'll come on out between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. Visit the Green Gathering's website for more information.

Recognizing that land preservation means quiet roads running through scenic countryside, the Hanover Cyclers recently chose to donate $400 to the Land Conservancy out of proceeds from their two annual fundraising rides. "We are happy to support the work you do, which ultimately supports cycling for our members in Adams County," they wrote. Thank you Hanover Cyclers!
