2024 - 2025 State Project:  Protect Nature, Preserve the Future


The project revolves around a place called the Torstenson Youth Conservation Education Center.  A partner of the Illinois Conservation Foundation, it works with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources to provide the best possible conservation-related experiences on its property.

The goal of the project is to raise funds for the installation of platform tents and a fire pit on the center's property.  As this project's mission extends far beyond the Torstenson Center, we would like to encourage each Society, with the help of their sponsoring DAR chapter, to design and carry out their own local conservation project.  It can be anything as long as it improves the quality of nature in the area.
