Dear Friends,
Thank you for your commitment and support of the Denison
Pequotsepos Nature Center. Each of you makes a difference —
enlivening our programs, enriching our mission and expanding
our impact — on a daily basis.
In this report, we list those members
and friends who in 2013 supported our
spring and fall appeals, sponsored our
Green Tie Gala, gave to support special programs such as the Concert for
Conservation, and, of course, the Campaign to Save Coogan Farm, which
itself netted more than $4.1 million.
Every donation to the Nature Center
extends our mission to new audiences
and strengthens DPNC as a steward of
Coogan Farm, Peace Sanctuary, Manatuck Preserve and other regional treasures.
We are fortunate that so many friends came forward during
the Coogan Campaign to make it such a success. Through your
generosity, our partnership with The Trust for Public Land,
and the hard work of many volunteers, we’ve completed the
purchase of the 34 acres on Route 27. Together with 11 acres
donated by the Coogan family, this protects an important
DPNC_Report.indd 2
cultural landscape for future generations and creates a continuous greenway from the Nature Center’s education facility to the
Mystic River.
The acquisition of Coogan Farm
will expand and redefine the Nature
Center’s role in the community as a
place where nature and history shape
our future. Yet many of the programs,
hikes and summer camp activities
remain fondly the same. It is, after
all, these programs and activities that
encouraged many on this donor roll
to support DPNC and its Campaign to
Save Coogan Farm.
Looking forward, we are confident
the Nature Center will continue to be
the model for conservation, environmental education, sustainability and recreation engendered by the heartfelt community
spirit that has led to our success.
Very Truly Yours,
T. Page Owen, Jr.

“
Returning to Mystic to perform music in support of the Nature
Center has become a wonderful tradition that I look forward to
each year. Music is its own reward, but music in support of nature education and conservation is particularly special to me. As
a kid, the Nature Center helped illuminate the world around me.
Nature has had an inherent impact on my music. My participation in Concerts for Conservation expresses my gratitude for the
Nature Center’s work.

benefit Concert for Conservation every year.
Whether it’s the Concert
for Conservation,
the Wild Mushroom
Festival or our annual
Easter Eggs-pedition, we
cultivate an appreciation
for all that the natural
world touches.

“
I spent much of my youth at
the Nature Center, working
with Bob, catching frogs, feeding
the snake and owls, banding birds,
maintaining trails. I loved every
minute of it. So for me, the
Nature Center means ‘great cause,
great people, great memories.’

“
Every day is a new
adventure. I love the new
people I meet. I love the
unique opportunities it
affords me to get close to
some awesome creatures. I
love team building with my
staff. I love the feeling that
I am doing something that
truly matters.
