In 2022, SOLC facilitated 1,676 student-days of programming and hosted several teacher professional development workshops. From the valley floor to the ridgelines, we are delighted to be supporting learners of all ages – whether they’re kindergarteners practicing their colors with fall leaves in the Jacksonville Woodlands or in-service teachers exploring trauma-informed fire ecology education. Learn more about our education efforts in 2022 and what we look forward to in the year ahead.
PHOTOS & RECAP: 2022 Annual All Member Picnic Event
SOLC’s annual Member Picnic reminded us of why coming together – in person --makes conservation possible, and the many ways that our individual curiosity and commitment combine to achieve lasting impact. From this year’s Conservation Award, presented to the founders of the Willow-Witt Ranch, to the Volunteer of the Year Award presented to Linda Kappen, to the assembly of 150+ members, staff, and board (old and new), this picnic marked the progress we have made across 44 years of collaborative, community-based work.

SOLC’s first Member Picnic and Annual Meeting in two years had all the joy and energy of the family reunions so many of us have done without during the Pandemic. Please enjoy a photo gallery of the day taken by a team of fellow community members and professionals. Also enjoy words of inspiration and knowledge from Dave Garcia (Conservation Awardee), Su Rolle who presented his award, and Executive Director Steve Wise in this recap of the day.
