Throughout the year, The Nature Conservancy in Indiana holds and supports a number of events and stewardship opportunities. Annual events such as Conservation Day and the Hellbender Hustle 5k as well as Conservancy sponsored or supported events can be found listed here. Monthly stewardship workdays and other volunteer opportunities are also posted.
Though most of these events are open to the public, some may only be for Conservancy members. Some of our events are also inclusive to those who are members of the Indiana Chapter's Generation Conservation group. If interested in becoming a member, please contact Ann Smith at ahsmith@tnc.org for more information. We hope to see you in 2011!
