We're All Going to Graceland

Hi Folks!

I am helping to get the word out for a community action opportunity that will help conserve 90 beautiful acres. The Interior Alaska Land Trust (IALT) is now UNDER CONTRACT to purchase a parcel known as “Graceland” below the corner of Chena Ridge and Isberg Roads. This protects a birch forest and is a part of a large greenspace in the headwaters of Cripple Creek. This parcel alone will add significantly to the Isberg Rec area and gets us all a lot closer to the possibility of adding new loop trails.

And neighbors! Check out the map (below). Conserving this plot protects it from future development, which protects our back yards, berry- picking spots, illicit snow-shoe trails, mushroom foraging opportunities, dog walks and whatever other good clean fun ya'll like to have in the woods.

The hard work has already been done thanks to the dedicated volunteers at the IALT. Now, all we need to do is dig into our wallets, purses, pockets and/or dig up a few coffee cans.

**If making a larger contribution (~$1000 or more), please consider writing a check or arranging to drop of cash.

Please make checks payable to Interior Alaska Land Trust and mail to:

Interior Alaska Land Trust

P.O. Box 84169

Fairbanks, AK 99708

This saves the 3% donation processing fee on this platform. I am happy to hand deliver checks to the IALT.

I am also accepting and bundling any smaller cash donations to alleviate the burden on the IALT treasurer. Everyone who donates will receive an individual receipt and a heartfelt thank you from the IALT.

Thanks for reading!!
