Ohio SWCDs Pedal for NACD

Not only is the Ohio Federation of Soil and Water Conservation Districts among the leaders in state fundraising efforts for NACD’s 509 Capitol Court Campaign, they are also organizing a local ride to raise additional funds for the Renovation Ride. The Federation will host a 53-mile ride on Saturday, July 5, 2008 in Ohio, with stops planned at Price Organics and at the Robinson Farm, home of NACD President Elect Steve Robinson. The tour will include beautiful scenery and offer a showcase of conservation and farming practices in both Union and Delaware counties. Several of NACD’s Renovation Riders plan to join in on the ride.

To join Team509 for all or part of the Ohio tour on July 5, or to sponsor, contribute funding or provide assistance during the event, please contact Mindy Bankey at (614) 784-1900 or mindybankey@ofswcd.org. NACD extends a big thank you to Ohio’s conservation districts for their support!
