We want to extend a sincere thank you to everyone who joined us on November 1, 2026, for the Francis Small Heritage Trust (FSHT) Annual Meeting. The turnout was truly excellent, and it was wonderful to see so many familiar faces and community members come together to celebrate our shared conservation mission.
A special note of appreciation goes out to Silas Hagerty and the team at the Smooth Feather Theater (located in the historic Kezar Falls Theater) for hosting our event and creating these wonderful videos.
