Geauga Park District again among The Nature Conservancy’s Natural Treasures
How easy it is to win a new Honda Civic Hybrid? Well, it could be as easy as taking a selfie.
Geauga Park District has again teamed up with The Nature Conservancy in Ohio and Honda to help residents experience the outdoors in a new way. Now through September 30, Ohioans can enter the sweepstakes here.
Each time you visit one of the 21 sites listed on the website – including Burton Wetlands Nature Preserve – enter another entry into the sweepstakes. However, only one entry is allowed per site, please.
Participants may also enter to win the new car by showing off their own Personal Natural Treasure. Upload a picture of yourself taken at your favorite place in Nature! Only one entry per personal spot is allowed, as well.
The Nature Conservancy and Honda developed the Natural Treasures challenge as a way to help showcase some of Ohio’s protected “hidden gems,” including places like Burton Wetlands Nature Preserve.
“We are pleased to be part of this fun promotion of one of our natural treasures in Geauga County,” said Sandy Ward, communications specialist for Geauga Park District. “Last year the winner had visited Burton Wetlands among his stops – and we’re feeling lucky again!”
Burton Wetlands Nature Preserve in Burton Township is a 305-acre parcel that includes the Charles Dambach Preserve. Located within the upper Cuyahoga River watershed, Burton Wetlands was officially dedicated in 1999 as an Ohio State Nature Preserve.
Geauga Park District is online, Facebook, Twitter and YouTube.
