Dear friends,
I am delighted to inform you that the Board of Trustees of the
National Park Trust chose Congressman John Lewis
to receive this year's Bruce F. Vento Public Service Award. This award
was established to recognize those in public service who have
demonstrated a lifetime of distinguished skill, resourcefulness or
innovation in the preservation of land, water or historic resources
for the legacy of America.
The Award Dinner
was held on April
22nd, 2004, at the Hyatt Regency Washington,
Capitol Hill, located at 400 New Jersey Avenue, NW, Washington, DC
20001.
This
was an exceptional event attended by Congressional leaders,
Conservation leaders, private citizens and National Park
Service staff.
The
parks are faced with challenging times and we need to thank and to
celebrate those who contribute to their preservation.
Best Regards,
Paul C. Pritchard
President
