2003 Reward Recipients:
Sid Goodloe
Bill Zeedyk

Our Second Annual Clarence Burch Award, given out at a banquet concluding the Conference went to rancher Sid Goodloe and riparian specialist Bill Zeedyk for their innovative strategies in riparian recovery.

Excerpt from Program:
"The Quivira Coalition is pleased to honor two men involved in the critically important, but often underrated, job of riparian restoration.

"In a time when water is increasingly a source of conflict and concern in the Southwest, Sid Goodloe and Bill Zeedyk have pursued a course of collaboration, innovation and education that is nothing short of inspirational. They have led by example, demonstrating how vision - of healthy land in this case - is still the key to success and improvement. Sid and Bill have pursued their vision in their own way, but each is united by their desire to learn, to teach, and to make land, and people, healthy again."
