Lake Simcoe Watershed \u2013 June 27, 2023 <\/strong>\u2013 The Lake Simcoe Conservation Foundation is thrilled to announce that the Connect Campaign, to build a new Nature Centre at Scanlon Creek Conservation Area, has received its largest private donation to date from Paul Sadlon. Mr. Sadlon’s contribution of $850,000 is a resounding endorsement of our mission to foster environmental stewardship and create a sustainable future for our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u200bDesigned with a net-zero carbon footprint, the new Nature Centre will be home to the Lake Simcoe Region Conservation Authority’s school-based education programs. It will also act as a community hub where residents of all ages and abilities will have opportunities to engage with nature and participate in programs that enlighten them about climate change and inspire them to take meaningful action. This state-of-the-art building will not only enhance efforts in environmental conservation but will also enable the Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority to meet the growing needs of the watershed community.<\/p>\n<\/div>
