Pine Creek Chapter Conservation Banquet

Greetings Friends in Conservation,As our nation approaches its 250th anniversary, we are reminded that America&rsquo;s story is inseparable from the wild landscapes and iconic species that have shaped our identity from the very beginning. From the prairies that sustained early communities to the forests, rivers, and coastlines that continue to inspire generations, our natural heritage is a cornerstone of our shared history. KECA celebrates not only the remarkable progress made in protecting these irreplaceable animals, but also the responsibility we carry into the next 250 years: to safeguard the biodiversity, habitats, and living treasures that define our nation&rsquo;s past, enrich its present, and will guide its future.Now in its 16th year, the Keystone Elk Country Alliance (KECA) continues to stand as a testament to grassroots conservation in Pennsylvania. Founded in 2009, KECA is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to preserving and enhancing elk habitat through a three-pronged mission: conservation education, habitat enhancement, and permanent land protection. Over the years, KECA has partnered closely with the Pennsylvania Game Commission and Department of Conservation and Natural Resources to restore and expand habitat across public and private lands, having improved thousands of acres for elk and other wildlife. Our flagship Elk Country Visitor Center in Benezette&mdash;a LEED-certified, ecologically designed facility&mdash;welcomes hundreds of thousands of visitors annually, offering immersive education through 4D theater, exhibits, and live programs. As KECA enters this milestone year, we reaffirm our commitment to sustaining Pennsylvania&rsquo;s elk country not just as a natural wonder, but as a thriving legacy for future generations.Our 2025 banquet was a resounding success, and we thank all of you who attended! We hope we can count on you this year to celebrate the Lenape Wapiti chapter&rsquo;s 14th Annual Conservation Banquet on SATURDAY, MARCH 28th, 2026, at BEAR CREEK MOUNTAIN RESORT at our earlier time of 3:15pm! You asked for an earlier start, and we are more than happy to accommodate. We are grateful to the many of you who have been with us since the beginning and welcome to all newcomers!On June 13, 2026, we are honored to hold the formal dedication of the Cogan Conservation Terrace at the Elk Country Visitor Center in Benezette. This terrace&mdash;a stunning overlook made possible with the funds brought in from our 2024 banquet Appeal Auction&mdash;is named for Rawley Cogan, a passionate advocate for elk conservation and longtime leader with KECA. The terrace provides visitors with a tranquil, elevated vantage point to reflect on the wild beauty of this landscape and to appreciate the collective effort that has gone into preserving elk habitat. Framed by panoramic views of rolling food plots and forested meadows, the dedication ceremony will celebrate both Cogan&rsquo;s legacy and KECA&rsquo;s ongoing commitment to habitat stewardship, education, and the long-term protection of Pennsylvania&rsquo;s elk country.Conservation Education continues to be a big and important part of the tools KECA uses to spread awareness of the impact our efforts have made, and in educating people on the plans and needs for moving forward. Conservation Education Scholarships were presented to three high school seniors choosing to continue their education in the fields of conservation, wildlife science, or education. Locally, three Educational Outreach programs alone (two for chapters of SCI and one for the Eastern chapter of the Wild Sheep Foundation) attracted 1500 attendees. In total, over 52,000 people in 44 counties and 8 states took advantage of the Conservation Education program!The credit card payment portion of the application will use an online secure form to safely and easily get you registered for the banquet.
