2018 CONSERVATION HIGHLIGHTS
In 2018, 2,590 more acres were protected in Texas. These conservation successes could not have happened without your continued support. TLC has now protected a total of 91,539 acres across the state.
THANK YOU FOR ENJOYING NATURE WITH US
From hikes, star parties, and camping weekends to conservation workshops, trivia nights, and happy hours, we loved hanging out with you in 2018. The more we can come together to share our love of nature, the more people who will want to protect it.
THANK YOU FOR DONATING YOUR TIME
Without you, we would not be able to maintain TLC preserves and have them open and accessible to the public. Thank you for making it so we can all enjoy these natural areas. A special thank you to Toyota, the Dallas Off-Road Bicycle Association (DORBA), Texas Conservation Corps, and our volunteers at Marysee Prairie, Ivy Payne Wildlife Refuge, and Kachina Prairie.
THANK YOU FOR DRINKING BEER (FOR CONSERVATION)
We are so thankful for our community partner breweries who participated in our Beer for Water campaign, but it wouldn’t have been successful without you! For every beer you drank, breweries donated $1 to protect land, water, and wildlife in Texas. We are excited to continue building this community of conservation-focused businesses so we can continue to protect land, and the water that flows through it, for years to come.
