CAS is a powerful force in the State of CT for conservation, nature-based education, and land preservation -- impacting the lives of thousands of citizens of all ages in very positive ways. There are countless examples.
Personally I think of the six kids I have taken to observe bird banding. I think of the expressions on their faces as they held a bird and felt it's heart beat -- 2 - 3 times as fast as our own. For several of these kids, the experience changed their lives as it sparked a continuing interest in nature and the out-of-doors.

The Great!
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
Board meetings, special events, and numerous interactions with staff, other board members, volunteers, and friends.
Ways to make it better...
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
Seek additional funding to enable tapping the considerable potential for even further contributions to the State and it's citizens.
