PACD and the Westmoreland Conservation District invite you to mark your calendars and plan to attend the 2025 PACD/SCC Joint Annual Conference, themed Conservation Led Locally. The event will take place at the Seven Springs Mountain Resort in Champion, PA. Sessions and conservation tours will take place July 16-17, but the conference workgroup is planning fun tours and activities the day before, so pencil in July 15 and plan to arrive a day early. To top things off, you may want to stay after the conference or come in even earlier to enjoy all that Seven Springs has to offer. There are plenty of family activities, too, so plan to bring the whole gang!
In addition to time for fun and fellowship, district directors and staff won’t want to miss our informational sessions and conservation tours beginning on July 16. Westmoreland is partnering with the Somerset Conservation District to host a tour of district projects, and Penn State Extension Educator Daniel Brockett will continue our series on large-scale solar farms with a session focusing on farmers, landowners, and considerations for land-use.
Registration will open in April. Stay tuned for more details, including much more on our planned sessions and conservation tours!
