The Wilderness Society (TWS) presented its prestigious Robert Marshall Award to two leaders in conservation at a September 28 ceremony at the Seattle Art Museum.

Our President and Founder, Rose Letwin was one of two who received TWS's highest award presented to a private citizen who has never held federal office but has devoted long-term service to and has had a notable influence upon conservation and the fostering of an American land ethic.

We are thrilled for Rose, and grateful to the Wilderness Society for honoring her and other conservation heroes.
