Through
the use of publications, media, exhibits, and signs, the Laramie
County Conservation District strives to update Laramie County
residents on conservation issues.
Publications
The district offers the following publications to Laramie
County residents:
The
annual "Report
on Progress" is developed each fall
to provide Laramie County taxpayers with information on how
their tax dollars are being utilized. A copy of the
district's seedling tree order form is also published in this
insert. Over 25,000 copies are printed and placed inside
of both the Wyoming Tribune-Eagle and the Pine Bluffs Post.
The
"Conservation Corner" is published three
times yearly (November, April and August) and is mailed to
more than 5,400 Laramie County residents. Timely conservation
articles on topics such as backyard conservation, trees, water,
wildlife, agriculture, community projects, and education are
included in this publication. If you would like to be
included on the mailing list to receive this free publication,
please e-mail the district at info@lccdnet.org.
Public
Events
Each year the district sets up a booth at annual Superday
and Laramie County Fair. Natural resource professionals
will man these booths and provide any information that is
requested.
Media
The district continually writes and submits news releases on
upcoming events to the Fence Post, Wyoming Tribune-Eagle,
Trader's Shoppers Guide, Pine Bluffs Post and Wyoming Livestock
Roundup.
District
staff participate in many radio talk shows to publicize upcoming
events and priority programs.
Signs
Most every district project (including living snow fence sites,
community enhancement projects, and all other projects) has
a sign installed with the district's name, what the project
is, and other sponsors. Each living snow fence site
also is numbered and has the year established, so that the
public notices the growth rate of the trees.
