I grew up hiking along the sandstone cliffs of the Ledges State Park, and it is now a place that I have taken my own children to enjoy the outdoors. Whiterock Conservancy is a 5,500-acre conservancy with a mix of habitats and that has modeled conservation and sustainability practices.
The work that we do at ELPC is critical to protecting our environment and creating sustainability and better quality of life for generations to come. Being a part of the solution to some of the most important problems that society faces is rewarding and motivating.
