OUT AND ABOUT IN THE COMMUNITY
Farm Day-
On Friday, September 28th, SBRLT attended the Farm Bureau’s Farm Days event held at the Yuba-Sutter Fair Grounds. This annual event is attended by over 2,500 local area 3rd grade school children to learn about agriculture, land use and conservation, law enforcement, animal husbandry, and much, much more.
This was the second year the land trust was involved in this event and we had the opportunity to present conservation and land management concepts to more than 100 youngsters! And our trusty Conservation Plinko game was also there where everyone is a winner when they play to preserve the environment!
Harvest the Arts-
This year’s Harvest the Arts festival saw the inclusion of SBRLT for the first time. Held at Heier Farms, this event strives to bring awareness to the arts in the Yuba-Sutter communities. SBRLT’s table provided interactive educational portions as well as the 2019 calendars and our ever popular books, Inland Island: The Sutter Buttes by Walt Anderson and Images of America: The Sutter Buttes by our very own Board Vice President, Mike Hubbartt, who was also graciously signing each purchase with a personalized message!
Our Promise, CA-
SBRLT also attended the United Way’s Our Promise, CA event held on the steps of the State Capital building in Sacramento. Hundreds of State employees and those from surrounding local businesses visited all of the worth-while non profits who were presented. Land Trust staff and volunteers were on hand to educate on our mission, as well as provide membership information.
Conservation Plinko was a hit with young and old alike and many contacts were made. We also raffled off three calendars and a gorgeous one-of-a-kind laser cut cutting board donated by Blueray Concepts Laser Art.
Sunset Serenade
The Sunset Serenade was held on Saturday, May 5th, on the historic Dean Place Ranch deep in the Sutter Buttes. The Sutter Buttes Regional Land Trust and Middle Mountain Interpretive Hikes teamed up once again to host another great evening of enjoyment outdoors, raffles and a silent auction brimming with exciting opportunities!
Attendees were able to hike, stroll, relax in the afternoon, bid on unique auction items and enjoy a catered dinner as live music filled the air and the sun sets beyond the “Middle Mountain.” It was a very successful evening for all involved!
PAINTING FOR A PURPOSE EVENT A HUGE SUCCESS!
Thank you for everyone who was able to join us for a fun-filled night painting this beautiful momma snow goose with her babies during an instructor-led class. Door prizes were graciously donated by local businesses and everyone left with a bag full of goodies.
A huge thank you to our sponsors, Colusa Industrial Properties and Blueray Concepts for helping to make this evening a success!
Stay tuned for future painting fun and be sure to join us next time!
