Do you enjoy hiking, biking, or walking on greenways in the Triangle? Do you want to have a hand in conserving land, for future generations to enjoy, in its natural state? Become a member of the Triangle Greenways Council today!
The next time you find yourself outside on your favorite greenway; ask yourself how did this greenway come to be: Was it a City project? Did a landowner donate the property? Who built it? The answer is the hard work of countless individuals collaborating across multiple disciplines. You can join these individuals in a mission to preserve and protect natural areas in the Triangle Region and learn more about how greenways are developed. We are always looking for talented people that share our vision of interconnected greenway corridors across the Triangle Region.

LaGasse Medal: William L. Flournoy Jr., FASLA |
 |
 |
 |
Triangle Greenways President, Bill Flournoy, will receive the LaGasse Medal for his contributions to the management and conservancy of natural resources and public landscapes. During his tenure at the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Flournoy managed the nation's first state conservation tax credit program, ultimately resulting in the donation of more than 180,000 acres valued in excess of $800 million for conservation purposes. Among many other conservation projects, Flournoy's 1972 graduate project helped inspire Raleigh, N.C.'s award-winning greenway program, which some consider the first work of its kind and which elevated the role landscape architects play in creating sustainable, healthy communities. Please join us in celebrating his distinguished honor! |
