On October 3, 2009, more than 350 people celebrated the Whidbey Camano Land Trust’s 25th Anniversary at the Coupeville Performing Arts Center. Guests enjoyed a beautiful photo slideshow, short films, a delicious ‘islands’ cake by J.W. Desserts, and a live concert by Grammy award winning artists, Tingstad and Rumbel. We honored local residents for their ‘Citizen Conservation’ over the last decades. The evening’s keynote speaker, State Attorney General Rob McKenna, commended land conservation in our communities and applauded our Land Trust, “History has been made here. Land trusts are a newer idea than national parks, but they are gaining more and more importance. The record of the Whidbey Camano Land Trust is the best in the state, maybe the United States.” Thank you to all who attended and those who supported this magical evening.

Between October 10 and 14, the entire Land Trust staff was in Portland, Oregon at the Land Trust Alliance’s national conference. In these past several days, our staff attended workshops and seminars led by field experts and renowned speakers on topics ranging from fundraising and finance to land protection, stewardship, and conservation technology. Our staff also met with land protection professionals from around the country to share experiences and information that helps improve our efforts. We are excited to apply many of the things we learned to our work here on Whidbey and Camano Islands!
