Ginny Wilcox – Outstanding Service to Spring Creek Preserve

At the January 2025 Executive Committee meeting, we were honored to recognize two of our long-serving volunteers, Secretary Ginny Wilcox and Treasurer Marvin Rogers. Award presented by Society President, David Parrish.

Ginny Wilcox – Outstanding Service to Spring Creek Preserve

 

Ginny Wilcox has been Secretary of the Executive Committee since before the Society was formed in 1989. She says someone handed her a note pad at the first meeting regarding the creation of the Society, and she has been doing the meeting minutes ever since, with her husband Bernie acting as editor and spell-checker.

She was on the volunteer team in the early 1990s that helped clear the path for our first concrete trail at 1770 Holford Road where it goes down the hill to the creek overlook. She has served through the flow and ebb and flow of the Society. If it had not been for Ginny’s tenacity, the Society might have disappeared.

Although Ginny has recently resigned from the Executive Committee and her role as Secretary, she will continue to advise and to lead the annual Christmas is for the Birds event that she created nearly 15 years ago.

Thank you, Ginny, for your Outstanding Service to Spring Creek Preserve.
