2023 Theme: A Celebration of our Communities!
On September 7, WVLT welcomed nearly 200 guests at J.Q. Dickinson Salt-Works, near Charleston, for our Annual Special Places event. Chef Paul Smith, from 1010 Bridge Restaurant & Catering, prepared a gourmet dinner, The Bullock Distillery curated a specialty cocktail, and Minor Swing provided music and entertainment! With your generosity, the event brought in more than $70,000 that will be used to protect special places throughout the state, emphasizing projects with community impact and public benefit.

2023 Honoree: Terrell Ellis
Terrell Ellis has been with the West Virginia Land Trust since 1998. Her 25-year commitment to the organization is something she is very proud of! We are too! Serving as the organization’s Board President, Interim Executive Director, and Organizational Consultant, she guided the organization through tremendous growth. Under her leadership WVLT gained national accreditation status with the Land Trust Alliance. She maintains her involvement through the Mammoth Preserve project, connecting it to larger regional community and economic development initiatives.
