Each year at our annual meeting we celebrate people who have made an impact on our work. The Charles Ross Award recognizes a long-term commitment to Greenbelt Land Trust.
This year we celebrated Nan and Bill Beck for their dedication to the Greenbelt mission. Nan and Bill have been active supporters for many years as volunteers, Heritage Circle members, familiar faces at community events, and Bill also served on our board.
In accepting the award Bill told a story about a Greenbelt float trip on the Willamette River he and his granddaughter attended, and he recalled how the wind for part of that day made progress difficult but how with a little help they kept pushing and made it to the takeout.
Coincidentally, that granddaughter contacted us about getting a copy of the Impact Report featuring our award winners, and she told us how her grandparents inspired her to pursue a career in conservation, teaching outdoor education to the next generation.
For their inspiration and dedication, we are thrilled to honor Bill and Nan Beck with the Charles Ross award!
