Memorial Fund over $10,000 !

We have just received word that the Blake Cadkin Memorial Fund created to support the Resource Center at the Six Mile Cypress Slough has exceeded $10,000. The Cadkin Foundation established the fund, and many friends and family members sent gifts in Blake's memory. Since then, Steve & Laurie Cadkin have made a very generous donation, and contributions are coming in steadily from volunteers and supporters of the Slough. This places Blake's fund in the major donor category, and it will be recognized as such on the Donor Wall of the visitors' building which will be called the Interpretive Center. This building is currently under construction, and the Grand Opening is scheduled for Saturday, April 12.
