Celebrate the legacy of Andrea Mead Lawrence—Olympic double gold medalist, mother of five, visionary environmentalist, 16-year Mono County Supervisor, and Mono Lake champion—with local leaders and advocates. Overlooking Mt. Andrea Lawrence we will enjoy inspired conversation, dinner, and the presentation of the Andrea Lawrence Award for passionate engagement in community and the land.

This year we are honoring Marina Castellino, a young Argentine professional who runs Experience Ambientalia, an education program that connects Laguna Mar Chiquita—the saline lake where she grew up—with Mono Lake and other saline lakes in the Western Hemisphere. Marina has led and coordinated youth programs focused on leadership, science and technology, public policy, and environmental education, connecting hundreds of students with these important ecosystems across the Americas.

Proceeds from this event contribute to the Andrea Lawrence Fund, which promotes and celebrates passionate engagement in community and the land with an emphasis on encouraging collaboration and inspiring youth to become environmental leaders.
