Update on Lula Lake Grant
Elsewhere on this blog we mentioned the grants given to the Lula Lake Land Trust by Rock Creek Outfitters, Chaco Sandals, and Patagonia to help replace a bridge that had been washed out by high waters last spring. Lula Lake just released this follow-up with a photograph:
Dawson Wheeler, owner of Rock Creek Outfitters, presented Adelaide Bratcher, Head of Development for the Lula Lake Land Trust, with checks from Patagonia and Chaco Sandals, two outdoor gear companies, as well as the locally-based Rock Creek Outfitters.
The grants came just in time to finish up the bridge that had been damaged by heavy rains last year. Speaking of the gifts, Mrs. Bratcher noted: “We were very fortunate to have Boy Scout Troop 191 help rebuild this bridge as part of an Eagle Scout Project. That and the generosity of Mr. Wheeler and his vendors are what help us continue to fund our ongoing maintenance needs and projects at the Lula Lake Land Trust."
