You are invited to join us for Partners in Preservation, a festive evening in celebration of 34 years of Capital Region conservation!

This year, we
are thrilled to honor Anita Sanchez, George Steele, The Town of Bethlehem's Farms & Forests Conservation Program, and Mike & Cary Patak and for their outstanding contributions to their communities and the environment.

Guests of the Fall Fundraiser will enjoy gourmet hors d'oeuvres and dinner selections by the River Stone Manor culinary team, lively conversation, our annual awards ceremony, updates on MHLC's regional conservation work, and beautiful views of the Mohawk River.

Proceeds from the annual Fall Fundraiser and silent auction support MHLC's mission to conserve and steward the lands and waters of the Mohawk and Hudson River Valleys for the benefit of people and the environment.

Honorary Committee members receive special recognition at the event and on the general invitation. The deadline to be included on the invitation is July 15.
