CONSERVATION ON TAP
Wednesday, July 16 at 5:30 p.m.–7:30 p.m.
Schulz Brau Brewing Co.
“Support Our Public Lands: Learn How to Help Parks, Forests, and the Places You Love”
Join us for this month’s Conservation on Tap event to show your support for our public lands!
This is a great opportunity to hear from and network with staff and volunteers from Appalachian Trail Conservancy, Discover Life in America, Great Smoky Mountains Institute at Tremont, Harvey Broome Group of the Sierra Club, National Parks Conservation Association, Smokies Safe Passage, Smokies Life, Tennessee Citizens for Wilderness Planning, and The Wilderness Society. All the organizations are active in the region, working on a variety of issues and missions related to public lands, parks, wilderness areas, and their continued viability.
“We want to give people an opportunity to learn about what we all do, what’s helpful right now, and how people can directlysupport the public lands that they love,” said Jacqueline Harp, CEO of Smokies Life, a nonprofit partner of Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
The evening will allow neighbors who may feel similarly about conservation to meet and converse.” Printed materials will be available for takeaway.
The free event takes place from 5:30–7:30 p.m., Wednesday, July 16, at Schulz Bräu Brewing Co., 126 Bernard Avenue in Knoxville. Speakers start at 6:00 p.m. with a brief Q&A period and social hour to follow.
A wide selection of beers will be available on-tap along with nonalcoholic beverages and authentic German fare from Schulz’s Schnitzel Kitchen.
A big thank you to National Parks Conservation Association and all of the other nonprofit organizations participating and co-hosting this event with DLiA!
