Nominations for the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame
Listen carefully. As you explore the Hall of Fame, you may hear voices from the past – the voices of people who made Wisconsin a leader in the conservation and environmental movements.
Through their actions, philosophies, and legislative involvement, people like John Muir, Aldo Leopold, Sigurd Olson, Gaylord Nelson, Gordon MacQuarie, Fran and Fred Hamerstrom, Owen Gromme, and Lorrie Otto have helped shape our relationship with the land. They worked to protect the environment and our quality of life in Wisconsin.
How to Nominate a Strong Environmentalist or Conservationist
Do you know someone you’d like to nominate for the Wisconsin Conservation Hall of Fame? Individuals may be nominated for induction into the Hall of Fame by members of the public or by WCHF organizational (Voting) members.
To make a nomination, please review the Guidelines. Nominations are accepted January 1 through May 31. Please do not submit nominations outside this timeframe. Nominations must be submitted digitally.
Each August, the five member Board of Governors (BOG) reviews nominations. The BOG selects five nominations to forward to the Voting Member Organizations and Foundation Directors. At the annual Inductee selection meeting, the five nominees are discussed and chosen for the following year.
