Campaign Success!

Happy New Year to our heritage supporters! Best wishes for happiness and health in 2012. The LBHF extends thanks to our many generous donors who helped us reach our $50,000 Land Conservation Fund matching campaign goal by December 31st. These funds help us manage the lands we currently protect and be prepared for opportunities in the future. This campaign was a great vote for heritage protection in Lake of Bays Township!
