Description

DUE TO COVID-19 PRECAUTIONS, THIS EVENT IS CANCELED. IF WE'RE ABLE TO RESCHEDULE, WE'LL BE IN TOUCH.

Please join the SC Conservation Coalition, a statewide alliance of over 40 different conservation organizations, on March 24th, for our 18th annual Lobby Day and Oyster Roast.

*schedule is subject to change based on the legislative calendar*

We'll gather at 10 am in Columbia for lobby training and briefing on the key issues for the day, hearing from policy experts and select lawmakers on lobbying best-practices and tips. Then, we'll head over to the State House at 12 pm for a day of lobbying.

In the evening, we'll gather with conservation advocates and legislators for an Oyster Roast at 701 Whaley Street from 5:30 - 8pm. We’ll also have chili and vegetarian options available.

So, come join us to make an impact at the State House or even just network and celebrate conservation with fellow conservationists and legislators.
