Join us on Saturday, March 25, 2023, from 5:00-9:00 p.m. for the Annual Conservation Stewards Awards hosted by Alachua Conservation Trust.

This event honors individuals in our community who are influential in a wide variety of ways – the arts, historic preservation, and particularly, in protecting our wildlife and natural resources. Past Conservation Stewards Awards have been some of the largest gatherings of community leaders and supporters of wild Florida in the region.

The majority of this year’s event will take place outdoors at Prairie Creek Lodge. The silent auction will take place indoors on the first floor of Prairie Creek Lodge. Please note, to ensure a quick check out process for the silent auction and ACT merch table, we strongly encourage payment by check or cash. We will accept credit card, but cannot guarantee our internet will be up to the task.

2023 CSA THEME

Classroom to Conservationist: Honoring Community Educators

Our theme celebrates the profound impact of community educators and their work to inspire future generations. Their devotion to providing educational opportunities to all and empowering young people to find their passion in conservation and their local communities is inspirational. The future of conservation would not be possible without community educators, who work tirelessly to ensure that those they serve have a meaningful understanding of the natural world, its history, and the opportunities for enacting change. Whether in outdoor classrooms at local nature preserves, community centers, or lecture halls, our honorees have made conservation and preservation a component of their work. Please join us in honoring their efforts and recognizing their passion and persistence to shape the past, present, and future of conservation.


THANK YOU
to our 2023 Corporate Sponsors!
