Tin Cup Thank YOU!

With Gratitude for Your Support

It is with deep gratitude that I thank everyone in our community for the incredibly generous support you have given VARD through your Tin Cup contributions. Once again, this community has demonstrated the extraordinary generosity and commitment that make the Teton Valley such a special place.

Our work at VARD requires a significant commitment to this Valley and to the natural environment that makes it unique.

Our goal, along with many others throughout the Valley, is to help find a responsible balance between economic growth and development and the natural environment in which we live. Both are important, and we believe they do not have to be mutually exclusive.

The tremendous outpouring of support this year allows our small but highly dedicated staff to continue reviewing development proposals throughout the Valley, engaging with elected officials and developers, and working to encourage thoughtful growth while protecting the environmental qualities that make this place special.

I also want to express my deep appreciation for the tremendous support our community has shown by showing up and making your voices heard at County and City meetings. Your participation matters. Without citizens willing to speak up and engage in the many development decisions facing the Valley, our work would be far less effective.

So, thank you—for your generosity, your engagement, and your ongoing commitment to preserving the unique character and beauty of this remarkable Valley.

With sincere gratitude,

Mike

Board Vice Chair
