In this episode of Whitney For Whitney Bay all seems well on the

Watch episode one of Whitney For Whitney Bay, and remember to
donate today at our website!

Hi! Welcome to the Whitney For Whitney Bay Blog!
The Chautauqua Watershed Conservancy is working to save property at Whitney Bay. This area is made up of wetland shoreline, restorable lake shoreline, and creek bank. This is such an important area to preserve because it is the most biologically diverse aquatic habitat on Chautauqua Lake! In order to save this property the Conservancy has to raise $200,000 by September 1st, and WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Acquiring this property is such a rare opportunity for the Conservancy to restore lakeshore that was formerly used for camping and recreation. But if we don’t raise enough money it will be sold for development. Join me, Whitney, in our mission to save this land and help keep our waters safe for generations to come.
 
There are a number of ways that you can tune in.  Every Wednesday we will be posting a new Whitney For Whitney Bay video, which you can find on our Facebook page, on Instagram at whitney4whitney bay, or here on my blog.  During these videos  we will take a virtual trip to the site and dig deeper into its conservation values, and keep you posted about the progress we've made toward our fundraising goal!
 
Most importantly, PLEASE DONATE!!!  Under "I would like to support the CWC by:" simply specify Whitney Bay.
