Flathead Audubon’s fundraising for the proposed conservation easement on the Owen Sowerwine property is going extraordinarily well! To date, you have helped us raise over $45,000 for the proposed conservation easement, nearing our halfway mark to our organization’s $100,000 goal for this estimated $775,000 project. More than half of all the funds likely needed for this extraordinary project have been raised or pledged.
Beginning on April 1, the Flathead Land Trust, Flathead Audubon and Flathead Lakers will be initiating our community wide Challenge Match Campaign to raise another $100,000 in local funding for Owen Sowerwine to match $100,000 in donations and pledges recently made to our three organizations to date. To help raise community awareness for this project, we are offering guided birding trips, walking, and boating tours to Owen Sowerwine in May and July 2023.
To sign up for any of the following tours, contact Jen at Flathead Land Trust (info@flatheadlandtrust.org) or call 406-752-8293. Check Flathead Land Trust, Flathead Lakers, or Flathead Audubon’s websites for additional tours and information.
