DescCarolina Thread Trail Program (Thread Trail) is an initiative to develop a regional network of greenways, trails and blueways that reaches 15 counties and 2.3 million people. Thread Trail is a unique 15-county collaboration that will connect communities and conserved land through a network of conservation corridors and trails developed through locally designed plans. Carolina Thread Trail is a separate 501(c)(3) corporation that is a supporting organization of Foundation for the Carolinas. Under a Memorandum of Understanding with Foundation for the Carolinas, the Conservancy acts as the lead agency of the Thread Trail program and was reimbursed $545,345 during 2019 for related services.This long term project under the Conservancy's leadership will permanently protect this region's history, beauty, and diversity, while conserving local lands and providing a broad range of community benefits. Thread Trail will also link more than two million citizens with hundreds of miles of greenways and trails as well as access to rivers for paddling in North and South Carolina, connecting points of regional significance. There are multiple public benefits including economic development, conservation of land, enhancement of water quality, cleaner air, alternative transportation, and healthy recreation activities for all regional citizens, all of which translates to enhanced quality of life. Thread Trail will be freely accessible to everyone. At the end of 2019, there were 1,610 planned trail miles, of which, approximately 260 trail and 170 blueway miles are complete.Desc

DescLand Acquisition: Catawba Lands Conservancy (the Conservancy) protected four new properties in 2019, totaling 183.82 acres in three counties. The Conservancy works with willing landowners and communities to conserve land in perpetuity by placing voluntary conservation easements on land, accepting donations of land, and occasionally purchasing land. CLC serves a six-county region in North Carolina that includes: Catawba, Gaston, Iredell, Lincoln, Mecklenburg and Union counties. Our conservation efforts focus on four areas: local farms, wildlife/plant habitat, water quality and connecting people to nature. Additionally, many of our properties have important species and habitat that the state of North Carolina designated as Natural Heritage Areas. Further, some of the properties provide critical habitat for state or federally listed threatened or endangered plants or animals.Desc

Expense$422,080ExpenseAmt
DescLand Stewardship: The Conservancy intentionally stewards its conservation assets. Staff monitors activities on fee owned land through site visits. Current conditions are evaluated against the reference conditions established by the Baseline Documentation. Photographs are taken and a monitoring report is generated and archived or the site visit is documented on a site visit report. As part of perpetual due diligence, the Conservancy ensures the plant, wildlife, and other conservation values remain undisturbed and protected. Where appropriate on fee owned property, the Conservancy provides public access opportunities, including both blueways and hiking trails, independently and through Carolina Thread Trail.Facilities for public access include a canoe/kayak launch (Spencer Mt. River Access and Pharr Family Preserve access), the Adam Springs Portage Trail, and canoe/kayak take-out (R.Y. McAden Access); and natural surface or paved hiking trails at the South Fork Trail, South Fork Rail Trail, Long Creek Preserve, Seven Oaks Preserve, Pharr Family Preserve, Buffalo Creek Preserve, Sallys Y Preserve, Catawba Springs Preserve, Girl Scouts, and Eastover Ridge Preserve. The Conservancy also monitors conservation easements using the same protocols as fee owned land. On private property protected by conservation easements, the Conservancy works with willing land owners to further enhance the conservation values already protected.Desc

Property and Easements Acquired for PreservationThe Conservancy may acquire certain property and/or conservation easements throughpurchases as well as through donor contributions. Donors generally contribute fee title to property or conservation easements. Conservation easements are legalagreements in which the landowner gives up some of the rights to their land, such asdevelopment, but retains ownership and management of the property. The conservationeasements are permanent and run with the land and are binding upon successive owners. Contributions are recorded at the estimated fair market value of the property or easement taking into consideration the fact that the land's use may be severely limited based on the parties' intent to preserve the property in its undeveloped state. Based on these facts, the values of easements shown in the accompanying Statement of Activities are based on independent appraisal or management estimates, if an appraisal is not available.
