Tennessee Wildlife Federation, one of the largest and oldest nonprofits dedicated to conserving the stateâs wildlife and natural resources, has opened nominations for its 55th Annual Conservation Achievement Awards.
The Conservation Achievement Awards are the stateâs longest-standing and inclusive conservation awards. Details and nomination materials can be found at tnwf.org/CAA. Nominations close March 6.
Past winners have included senators, international companies, conservation professionals, and lifelong volunteers from every corner of the state. The Awards bring together conservationists with varying interests, backgrounds and viewpoints.
âThe differences among our winners over the last half-century shows that successful conservation depends on a diverse and collaborative effort,â said Kendall McCarter, chief development officer for the Federation.
Nominations are accepted in nearly 20 categories–from Conservationist of the Year to Youth Conservationist–to continue this tradition thatâs strengthened the conservation community and celebrated outstanding work.
Award winners will be celebrated at a luncheon in Nashville on May 15.
