The Conservation Council will present its annual Milton F. Gregg Conservation Awards in Fredericton Saturday night at the Spring Into Action Auction and Awards Evening.

The award for lifetime achievement will be presented posthumously to recognize the late Florian Levesque from Balmoral. Lawrence Wuest of Stanley will receive the award for environmental activism.  Post-Carbon Moncton will be recognized for its organizational achievement and Betty Lizotte from Saint John will be recognized for her volunteerism.

The recipients will be honoured on the evening of Saturday, April 28th at the Conservation Council’s annual Spring into Action fundraiser to be held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Fredericton, beginning at 7:00 pm.

Gregg Conservation Award winners are selected by CCNB’s Board of Directors from nominations submitted by their membership.  The Milton F. Gregg Conservation Awards have been presented annually by the Conservation Council since 1981.

Tickets to the event are available from the Conservation Council at 180 St. John St, Fredericton, 458-8747, info@conservationcouncil.ca
