Long Creek Conservation Area: A benefit to the community and region
October 19, 2012The Thread to Celebrate Its Fifth Anniversary and 100th Mile of Open Trail
October 29, 2012Great things are taking place on and around Catawba Lands Conservancy’s (CLC) Long Creek Conservation Area, including a new 2.1-mile segment of the Carolina Thread Trail that opened this summer! Our Long Creek Conservation Area now permanently protects 175 acres of land in southwestern Mecklenburg County along Long Creek (a tributary of the Catawba River) near the U.S. National Whitewater Center. In December of 2011, CLC conserved this prime property within an area experiencing residential and industrial development.
