Land Trust Dinner a Great Success --
The Lake County Land Trust Annual dinner at the Clearlake
Community/Senior Center was a big success with over 100 people
attending. People enjoyed socializing, bidding on silent auction
items, listening to the Blue Collar Band, and learning about the
past achievements of the Land Trust. Land Trust Supporters of the
Year were honored and numerous people were thanked for their
participation in this event, including Lake County Wineries,
sponsors of the event, Carle High School students, and many other
Land Trust volunteers. Many thanks to those who attended and
support the Lake County Land Trust!
