Guest writer Bryan Tyler interviewed Evan McDonald, KLT executive director, for a report on KLT's recent conservation accomplishments, including the Paavola Wetlands Preserve, the Manitou Island Light Station Preserve and the return this July of the tall ship Denis Sullivan, a participant in the Land to Sea Expedition, a program promoting water and land conservation. more
