Wally King Legacy Circle
"We heard about GBLT over 12 years ago from our neighbour on Bone Island, Fred Schneider. With encouragement from Chris Baines, we produced annual Shakespearian plays at our cottage as fund raisers for GBLT. Over the years we became involved in GBLT activities, and of course, the aims of GBLT became very important to us to preserve our communal legacy of Georgian Bay as much as possible. Following the example of the Schneider's adjacent property, we thought that granting a conservation easement on over 70% of our land would re-inforce our commitment to the Land Trust while maintaining unrestricted use of enough of our property for our family's enjoyment. While fundraising is important, the conservation easement is a permanent physical sign of our belief in the aims of GBLT."
Wally King Legacy Circle
Wally King was one of the Founders of the GBLT, a Past President, and a tireless supporter of efforts to preserve this incredible area for future generations. In 2009 he and his wife Marilyn donated an extremely generous amount to the GBLT and created the Wally King Legacy Circle to celebrate planned gifts from current supporters and to encourage other Georgian Bayers to make a planned gift to the GBLT that will continue their support in perpetuity.
Join Wally and other friends in the Legacy Circle by making a planned gift today and notifying the GBLT of this gift.
Current members of the Wally King Legacy Circle:
