Leopold Bench Winner

At the May 21st Leopold Heritage Group program, all sign in slips from April & May programs were gathered together and a name was drawn for the winner of the Leopold Bench. It was made and donated by Jim Hilkin, utilizing the basic design created by Aldo Leopold. Kaye Hanna of Burlington won the bench - she attended the very first program in the Leopold Loft at Starr's Cave Nature Center when winners of the "Wild Words and Art Contest" were announced. Thanks to all who supported the 2009 series of lectures, outdoor hikes, film previews & readings. We will continue to bring information about local Leopold connections - such as the opening of the new Aldo Leopold Middle School, the Leopold Energy Fair, and more. Feedback to the blog or LHG committee members is welcome.
