Donate to Salmon Falls Ranch Project
The American River Conservancy needs our help in acquiring 605 acres west of Salmon Falls Road in the American River watershed. They are asking us to contribute $50 by April 27. I donated online at arconservancy.org/donatesalmonfallsranch
As development pressures continue to advance around Folsom Lake, it's very important to invest in our collective open space! Thanks!
