Keep South Carolina Wild
March 05, 2025
Conservation Lobby Day was a huge success last week, and SCWF staff were proud to be joined by several high school students and their parents at the State House. The students were members of the Salt Marsh Pony Club, Aiken County Pony Club, Palmetto Pony Club, Aiken Hounds and Camden Hunt, all of whom place a strong emphasis on land conservation.
After SCWF prepared them to speak with state lawmakers regarding several conservation-related bills, the students were eager to show up and meet their senators and representatives. Students were from all around the state, and all of them were able to speak with lawmakers from their districts to express their support of conservation in our state.
This was a great way to introduce them to the lawmaking process and they were able to observe activity in both the Senate and the House chambers. They even had the opportunity to visit Senator Campsen’s office to hear about the Conservation Education Bill (S.165). SCWF was happy to help train and encourage these future wildlife advocates!
