“I’m sure you all recognize and appreciate that forests survive on rain and that they are tested and strengthened by the winds, ” said Land Trust Board President Tom Cahill as he welcomed more than 200 Trillium supporters to the Land Trust’s celebration at the M-Bar-C Ranch on Sunday, October 24. Outside the arena, the rain fell and the gusts flew by, but inside, all who attended cheered and congratulated each other for the perseverance and creativity that raised the money to purchase the Trillium property. Now, it’s saved for wildlife and current and future generations. Island County Commissioner Helen Price Johnson and Land Trust Development Director Elizabeth Guss continued Tom’s sentiments, thanking everyone for the over-the top-top support that went into the campaign and recognized those whose support came in the forms of donations, in-kind gifts, endorsements, partnerships, and moral support. Executive Director Pat Powell talked about the Land Trust’s other active projects and encouraged people to support the Land Trust’s work into the future, including stewardship of the Trillium property. The program ended with the Earth Song Riddle, inspired by the Trillium project and composed by member Pushkara Ashford. The Land Trust also thanks all of its guests who brought food donations, we left the ranch with three barrels of food for our local food banks.
