MMNA Quarterly Meeting

Upcoming Quarterly Meeting – Nov. 2, 2019 10AM – Heathwood Hall School Auditorium

Our MMNA Quarterly Meeting will be held Saturday Nov. 2, 10AM in the Heathwood Hall School auditorium, 3000 South Beltline Blvd. Columbia SC 29201. Heathwood is a lovely campus, and has natural areas to explore either before or after.

The first hour will be about association activities and business.  For the second half of the meeting, our speaker will be Mary Crockett, the Director of Land Protection at the Congaree Land Trust (CLT).  In her role there, Mary manages approximately 172 conservation easements in a 14 county service area. She is involved with the COWASEE and Broad River Basin focus areas, working with a collaborative task force to conserve the Congaree, Wateree, Santee, and Broad Rivers and their riparian lands. She also helped with the formation of the Congaree and Wateree River Blue Trails. Prior to CLT, Mary was the River Conservation Program Coordinator for SCDNR for 13 years.  Mary’s talk will focus on SC waterways. She loves our rivers and has an extensive background knowledge of our river systems.  She will also tell us how we can assist Congaree Land Trust with monitoring their properties in 2020.
