Save Mount Grant – Campaign Update

Here’s an Update from the San Juan Preservation Trust on the Campaign to Save Mount Grant…

We Did It! With your help, we met the $500,000 challenge grant. Thanks to contributors from 467 households, we raised over $500,000 since March 1, the start of the challenge grant generously provided by Eliot and Tina Scull. They will match all gifts up to a total of $500,000.

The Campaign is Not Complete. While we are very excited that we are more than halfway to the goal, we still have approximately $1,042,000 before we reach the project goal of $4,200,000.

Sundays at the Summit will be extended through September and October. Which means that if you’ve not yet visited the top of Mount Grant (or even if you have), you may drive it on Sundays between the hours of 10 am and 4 pm. The property is open to hikers seven days a week, dawn until dusk.

Join Team Mount Grant. Our “crowdfunding” campaign continues, and you can help by logging on, creating your own campaign in about 20 seconds, and asking your friends to support the Mount Grant campaign. Join now!
