A Special Evening on June 27 about the Leopold legacy:
Trustees and special friends of the Association are alerted and cordially invited to take advantage of a very rare opportunity — an evening with the Aldo Leopold Foundation on June 27, 2005 beginning at 6 pm at the Association's Center for the Forest Preserve in Niskayuna.
Aldo Leopold's son, Carl Leopold, is scheduled to be with us along with the foundation's executive director Buddy Huffaker. The purpose of our evening is to explore common ground, inspire each other and to share ideas for how the Association can advance the Leopold land ethic in the Adirondacks and Catskills. The Leopold Foundation is dedicated to advancing the rich legacy of Aldo Leopold, the father of modern ecology. The Leopold foundation is preparing to raise funds to restore the famous Leopold "shack" in northern Wisconsin and is excited to see what we have accomplished here at our Center.
