The Cedar Lakes Conservation Foundation (CLCF), a 501(c)(3) in West Bend, is one of the oldest land trusts in Wisconsin. All proceeds from this event benefit CLCF and its mission to conserve the natural environment of the Cedar Lakes region. Since 1974, CLCF has helped to protect over 3,000 acres of land, with a goal of reaching 3,600 acres by 2028.
