SUMMARY:Pro Series: County Conservation Legislative Priorities
DESCRIPTION:Learning about conservation policies is a vital process to understanding the available resources to aid natural resource protection. \nThe health of Iowa’s natural resources and the availability of our shared outdoor recreation opportunities is at a cultural crossroads. 60% of our woodlands\, 99.9% of our prairie\, and 95% of our wetlands – original habitat compositions – are gone. Funding for conservation programs are hard to navigate\, and their significance of impact on the landscape is declining. \nThankfully\, our state’s constitution already has a solution to help many of these problems – through Iowa’s Natural Resource and Outdoor Recreation Trust Fund! \nOn March 21\, come to the ANC to learn about the only unfunded constitutional program in Iowa’s history. \n  \nThe County Conservation Director’s Association (CCDA) is the primary group to educate\, network\, and serve as a unified legislative voice for County Conservation Directors across the state of Iowa. Zach Hall\, the current CCDA President and Warren County Conservation Director\, will present on recent policies and their impact on our conservation industry. \n  \nPro Series is a program designed for adults who want to engage in meaningful\, in-depth conversations about conservation. Each session explores pressing environmental issues\, current research\, and practical ways we can protect and restore natural habitats. Participants will have the opportunity to share ideas\, ask questions\, and connect with like-minded individuals who are passionate about conservation. \nRegistration will open one month before the event.

SUMMARY:StoryWalk
DESCRIPTION:StoryWalk® is a fun idea to get communities outside and reading. Each month\, we will put new nature-themed children’s stories along trails in different parks. Stories will all be nature-themed and fun to read! Bring your whole family out to hike and read a page of the story every few feet as you go along. Below is a schedule of where and when the books will be placed. A few days before the end of the month the storywalk will move to the next park.
