We certainly appreciate the hard work of Foothills Conservancy in negotiating with the former landowner to bring the Cane Creek project to fruition.
This is truly a win for our land and water and a win for the young people who will be able to enjoy life-changing experiences in the outdoors for generations to come.
We were both born and raised here in the foothills of North Carolina, and we truly believe that any and all efforts to preserve and protect our beautiful home are beyond worthwhile.
