Mac Campbell

Honorable Mention

As founding member of the Saugeen Field Naturalists in 1975, Mac Campbell has maintained his involvement and support for the club ever since. He served on the Board during the early years.

Many club members have enjoyed outings with Mac’s leadership and learned from his extensive knowledge.

One of Mac’s biggest achievements was to gain protection for a special property with sand dunes, near Port Elgin. When Mac learned that the property was potentially to be sold, he worked with the Escarpment Biosphere Conservancy to have it permanently protected. Saugeen Field Naturalists had a nature visit to the site.

As is so often the case, one person’s actions have a ripple effect, and we never know quite how we will impact others. As a result of Mac’s work, word spread, and the Conservancy benefitted by receiving several other properties in this area.

Congratulations to Mac on your many years of service to Saugeen Field Naturalists and conservation in this area!
