PAC received a grant from The Polk County Community Foundation which helped PAC to secure an option to purchase the organization's office space in Tryon. PAC hopes to be able to make its home permanent some time in the next 3 years. Thanks to our local foundation!

Serving on one of PAC's committees-- Education, Development, Land, or Finance

Helping with PAC Events-- Creative Think-Tanking, Sponsorships, Decorating, Gathering Auction Items, Baking, Parking, Greeting, and Micro-Managing.

Designing and presenting educational programs on a variety of conservation issues to civic groups, governmental bodies, and in schools in concert with the Education Committee.

Helping Monitor the more than fifty easements for which PAC is responsible.

Assisting in the PAC Office

Fund Raising and Sponsorship Gathering

Grant Research and Writing

Trail Maintenance ("Adopt a Trail") and Kudzu Eradication

 

PAC has always been a grass roots volunteer-based organization. Please contact PAC if you have an interest in conservation and would like to help with anything from putting on fundraising events to the monitoring of our protected lands.

If you'd like to become a PAC volunteer, email us. We have Volunteer Interest Forms to help identify the most satisfying conservation niche for you!

 

Thank you to all of our wonderful and dedicated volunteers!
