In the past five years, the local nature conservancy has protected an additional 2090 acres, which, to put that into perspective, is about half of all the land protected by Muskoka Conservancy since 1987. The local land trust celebrated this success on Friday, June 7, at its Annual Meeting held at the Raymond Community Centre in Utterson.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNature conservation benefits people in all the communities we serve, it confers benefits to future generations, and everyone connected to Muskoka Conservancy shares a part of this success,\u201d said&nbsp; Scott Young, Executive Director. \u201cFrom the youngsters in our Little Sprouts Eco Club right on up to&nbsp; the donors of multimillion-dollar properties, we thank you all!\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Board chair Bob Weekes highlighted the most recent success stories in his address to Conservancy supporters who packed the charming and historic meeting hall. \u201cWe have had another successful&nbsp; year,\u201d he said, \u201cadding five more properties to the lands under our protection.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Attendees enjoyed a slide show featuring photos of the newly protected lands:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 17-acres on Porter Lake near Bala donated by Nature photographer Eleanor Kee-Wellman. \u2022 An enhanced easement for 1,760 feet of shoreline on Lake of Bays thanks to Tara and Jason&nbsp; Ashdown.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 Another 20-acres added to The Wolf Mountain Conservation Easement on Peninsula Lake thanks to Norm Moffat.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 An addition to the South Monck Meadows Nature Reserve on the outskirts of Bracebridge thanks to John &amp; Kerry Fitzmaurice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2022 The 597-acre Carr\u2019s Lake Hunt Camp\u2014now the largest of Muskoka Conservancy\u2019s holdings,&nbsp; made possible with gifts from Brad Ford, Don Scott, Gerard Newman, David Young, and&nbsp; William Fitchett, and financial backing from Maple Cross, The Kenneth M Molson&nbsp; Foundation, Canada\u2019s Nature Smart Climate Solutions, and Ontario\u2019s Greenlands&nbsp; Conservation Partnership Program.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>(Click <a href=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2024\/06\/2023-24-Land-Acquisition-Photo-Package-1.pdf\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">HERE<\/span><\/a> to view the newly protected lands).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are indebted to those foundations and to all our other financial supporters. We are also most grateful to our dedicated team of Board members and a number of committed volunteers who work quietly behind the scenes,\u201d said Weekes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Muskoka Conservancy offers a local, nature-based solution to serious environmental problems like&nbsp; climate change, biodiversity loss, and over-development. These land conservation efforts are&nbsp; mirrored by many similar organizations across Ontario, Canada, the U.S. and beyond, meaning local action is having a global impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Conservancy team of staff, donors, and volunteers are all dedicated to a clear cause: every year protecting more land,\u201d said Young. \u201cWe are part of a success story making Muskoka better&nbsp; while helping to solve global challenges, and that feels good!\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Conservancy gathering also included an awards ceremony. The prestigious Wayland Drew&nbsp; Award was presented to Allyn Abbott, who for decades has exemplified environmental leadership,&nbsp; stewardship and conservation through her involvement with the Conservancy. The Esson Bursary&nbsp; was awarded to local Secondary School graduates Zachary Caplan of Huntsville and Will Lockhart of Bracebridge ($2,000 each). Odin Robinson took home the Little Sprouts Eco Club Photo Contest prize, and Laurel Turansky was the winner of the 2024 Michael Foster Photography Contest.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting wrapped up with a special keynote presentation by Kathy Jones of Birds Canada, who spoke about the declining status of The Common Loon in Muskoka. The presentation included an update on the Canadian Lakes Loon Survey, and offered some helpful do\u2019s and don\u2019ts for installing floating nesting platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n<div
