Brooksher Named 2008 River Conservator
Roaring Fork Conservancy is proud to recognize Carter Brooksher as the recipient of the 2008 Robert Billingsley River Conservator Award. For the last nine years, Roaring Fork Conservancy has honored individuals who are active in the protection and preservation of our watershed with this award at the annual River Rendezvous celebration.

Carter Brooksher has been a conservationist all of her life. At the age of five she began a lifelong love of fishing and first dropped a hook in the pond across the street from her home in Missouri. Outdoor experiences, including many with Girl Scouts, cultivated her love of nature. Later she became a regular visitor to the trout streams in the Ozarks and Montauk State Park. Carter spends about half of each year in the Roaring Fork Valley, enjoying the unbeatable angling, skiing and hiking.
