SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES

Event Overview
Join The Wild Center for a one-day conference bringing together community members, scientists, Indigenous voices, and policy leaders to explore wildfire risk and preparedness in the Adirondacks. This event is in partnership with Adirondack Chapter of The Nature Conservancy, Adirondack Explorer, and Paul Smith's College

As wildfire threats increase across the Northeast, this conference aims to deepen our collective understanding of fire as a natural ecological force—and the growing need for proactive strategies to protect Adirondack landscapes and communities. Through panels, presentations, and conversations, we’ll explore what’s at stake, what’s possible, and what we can do—together.
