Spokane County
Conservation Society
Our membership is made up of current and past conservation district supervisors or associate supervisors; employees of conservation districts; members and staff of partner organizations and agencies; spouses and other immediate family members of supervisors or associate supervisors who have passed away. Conservation Districts and partner organizations or agencies, as a single entity, are also eligible for membership.
The WCS is overseen by a board made up of its members. The WCS Board meets throughout the year, including at the WACD Annual Meeting. They develop the priorities and projects and the overall direction of the WCS, devise recruitment activities, and manage the financial budget.
Protecting and enhancing Washington's natural resources for present and future generations is the heart of sound conservation and the focal point of the WCS.
