beauty & bounty

a benefit barbecue

October 10
3:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
Hosted by David & Susan Rockefeller

Let’s celebrate the land! We’ll spend the evening with master of ceremonies Will Yandik, enjoying the beautiful Rockefeller Farm, one of the first properties permanently conserved in Columbia County.

Becoming a member of the Host Committee is invaluable to the success of this event, where CLC aims to raise at least $250,000 to put The Plan to Conserve Columbia County into action. Your support will help pursue conservation strategies such as collaborating with conservation partners, engaging people in caring for the land, and conserving an additional 10,000 acres by 2035.

As a Host Committee member, we kindly ask that you consider purchasing a table for ten at $12,000 to celebrate 40 years of conservation with your friends and neighbors. Members of the Host Committee will be invited to a special reception at 3:00 p.m. If you are unable to join the event, a donation in support of the Host Committee in lieu of a ticket is greatly appreciated.

With your permission and a reply before June 30, your name will be prominently featured in promotional materials and the print invitation.
