Further, it shall be the Commonwealth's policy to protect

The
Clean
Valley Council's new Executive Director, Cristina Siegel, joined
us on Wednesday, June 28, 2010.
“I have a
passion for environmental health and sustainable use of our
natural resources. I was drawn to CVC by their strong and well
respected environmental education program and strong citizen and
business participation programs such as Clean Valley Day”, Ms.
Siegel stated. “I am very excited about the opportunity to lead
these efforts into the future and nurture their growth.”
"Cristina
has a terrific combination of academic and scientific
credentials in soil and forestry conservation and a personal
commitment to sustainability, living in a solar powered home,”
said James Breakell, President of Breakell, Inc. and incoming
President of the Clean Valley Council Board of Directors. |

As most
if you know. we unexpectedly lost our Executive
Director, Ann Masters on December 18, 2009. Gifts in her memory may be
sent to Clean Valley Council at the address above.
If you wish to make your donation in her name, please make note so we
are able to notify the family of your kind
remembrance. She was recently interviewed by Tracy
Garland and the
article concluded with:
"I have had a good life with marvelous family,
friends and fun,”
And while her position as Executive Director of the
Clean Valley Council is “the best job I’ve
ever had,”
Ann’s true
goal in life is to work herself out of a job. “I
would love to close the doors on the CVC, because
that would mean that Roanoke is clean, pristine and
healthy and that it’s going to stay that way.”
She reflects “I hope my work has made a
difference in the environment. I know the work has
made a change in me.” |
