Last week, Sequoia Riverlands Trust held a dinner to celebrate its 20th anniversar­y of protecting California’s heartland, providing innovative outdoor science education, and advocating for statewide land conservanc­y and stewardshi­p. SRT’S 2022 “Evening Under the Oaks” dinner also celebrated the career of Nancy Bruce, retired lead teacher at Tulare County of Education’s Circle J-norris Ranch. Bruce was honored with the organizati­on’s annual Alan George Conservati­on Award. She’s the first woman to win the award. Bruce was Circle J’s lead teacher for 21 years and helped to coordinate the work of the student interns at the UC MERCED/SCICON Field Station, which opened in 2019. Bruce, right, receives the Alan George Conservati­on Award from Logan Robertson Huecker, executive director of Sequoia Riverlands Trust.
