South Carolina’s conservation community hosts the Annual Conservation Day each year, normally held in April. Conservationists from around the state travel to the State House to meet, greet and encourage elected leaders to support the Common Agenda priorities.
The Conservation Day begins with a morning briefing, after which the group walks to the State House to speak to legislators about support for pro-conservation bills. During the afternoon, participants attend committee meetings and enjoy free time to tour Columbia and the State House grounds. In the evening participants attend an informal oyster roast under the stars. Participants share live music and local food with legislative guests.
The 2010 Annual Conservation Day will be May 4. If you only go to the State House once a year to speak to your legislator, this is the day to visit. For more information, contact us at info@conservationvotersofsc.org.
