Dear Friends of the Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy,2010 marks an exciting milestone for the Arroyos & Foothills Conservancy (formerly the Altadena Foothills Conservancy). We’re inviting you to help us celebrate our 10th year of protecting natural open spaces and watershed lands in the San Gabriel Mountains with a birthday party on Saturday at 6 p.m., May 1, 2010, at the home of Pasadena Mayor Bill Bogaard and Mrs. Claire Bogaard.
This gala event will serve both as a celebration and kick-off for our land trust fund campaign, where we seek to raise $250,000 to support vital open space acquisition and stewardship in the foothills and arroyos, wildlands and urban fringes of the San Gabriel Mountains.
We are excited that we have already received a $56,000 gift from the Dale Harbour Champion Fund to launch this important fund-raising endeavor.
Please join us for our ‘May Day’ Birthday Party and help us reach our goal!
Your leadership is an investment in our future, leveraging efforts by many to keep open spaces free for recreation, education, habitat, watershed protection, and as scenic vistas. See http://www.afc10th.myevent.

Please let us know if you can donate a gift certificate, art, jewelry, a weekend in a vacation home, or a unique item that we can auction off to raise more funds for protection of our natural open spaces.
Thank you for your past support of land conservation. We look forward to your participation in our 10th Anniversary Celebration!
