Inaugural Lende Lecture Series

Apr 11, 2018 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM (Add to calendar)
1 UTSA Circle, San Antonio, TX 78249

The Cibolo Preserve is a 600-acre Texas Hill Country property adjacent to the Cibolo Nature Center & Farm formerly owned by the late Bill Lende, a staunch conservationist who was committed to environmental research. Mr. Lende passed away in 2017, and to continue his legacy, the board of directors of the Cibolo Preserve has established the Lende Lecture Series.

The lecture series will touch on regionally relevant topics in the areas of Natural Resource Conservation, Wildlife Research & Protection, Children in Nature, Preservation of Rural Heritage, and Farm and Ranchland Issues. We hope to attract those who are interested in conservation in Texas at all levels by offering engaging and thought-provoking presentations that convey knowledge and inspire action.

In light of the inter-connectedness of the above topics and his rich experience with conservation in Texas, Carter Smith, Executive Director of the Texas Parks & Wildlife Department, will be the keynote speaker for the inaugural lecture, combined with gorgeous aerial imagery from Airborne Aerial Photography by Justin Moore, and a Texas Land Trends presentation by Dr. Roel Lopez from Texas A&M Natural Resources Institute. This event will be free to attend.

The reception will be at 5:30 PM, and the lecture will begin at 6:30 PM. Please RSVP to reserve seat & reception attendance: (830)249-4616 | nature@cibolo.org
