Continuing education activities include field trips, workshops, reading lists, membership meetings, and special educational events, all of which offer many ways to learn how to identify native plants, understand their natural settings and ecology, and propagate and grow them.We host an annual symposium, which is a full day of presentations and lectures by scholars and professionals on a wide array of topics related to native plants. GNPS strongly believes in ensuring that students and dedicated professionals have an opportunity to learn, so scholarships are available to attend the symposium, open to college students, interns at nature centers and botanical gardens, and to interpretive naturalists who work at Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites and other natural areas.To further educate students, GNPS sponsors scholarships to the regional Cullowhee Native Plant Conference held at Western North Carolina University. A plant of the year is chosen by the membership and enables us to appreciate an important native plant in more depth. We also provide educational materials for many age and knowledge levels, and sponsor formal research into all aspects of native plants and their environmental relationships.CONSERVATION:The Georgia Native Plant Society is dedicated to the conservation of Georgias native plants and their habitats. This is carried out through countless hours and immense energy and dedication of GNPS volunteers. Our conservation projects included 60 plant rescues throughout the state of Georgia, removal of invasive species and native plantings on 9 restoration sites, creation and development of educational gardens, and propagation of native plants at our Stone Mountain Propagation Project. 90173 true true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 3 0 true 1 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 11 11 false false false false true true true true true false true true false true true false false true false false false GA X RON SMITH 4042722608 291 WOODMOOR LANE DECATUR GA 30033 X NIKKI BELMONTE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.00 0.00 43750 0 0 ELLEN HONEYCUTT Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 LORI CONWAY Co-Chair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 LEA MILLET Secretary 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 RON SMITH Treasurer 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 AMY HEIDT Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 CHADD REYNOLDS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 GREG LEWIS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KARAN RAWLINS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 LES CANE Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 MICHELLE BUCHANAN Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 TOM COLLINS Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 43750 0 false false false 0 46722 32129 78851 FEE INCOME 5623 5623 PLANT AND MERCH SALES 16025 16025 21648 7883 7883 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 108382 21648 7883 X 1746 1746 0 0 0 43750 41563 2187 0 0 0 0 3347 3180 167 0 0 4660 4660 0 0 0 14974 11975 2999 0 0 3208 3048 160 0 2030 2030 467 467 0 0 0 0 0 6496 4234 2262 CHAPTER SUPPORT 10824 10824 DUES AND SUBS 5524 4300 1224 Printing and Publications 3085 2931 154 BANK FEES 2529 2529 3778 1346 2432 106418 90173 16245 0 39296 21376 213946 233830 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 253242 255206 0 0 X 253242 255206 253242 255206 253242 255206 1964 X false false false X 39784 40980 37517 66369 78851 263501 68458 13451 9158 11699 21649 124415 0 0 0 108242 54431 46675 78068 100500 387916 15000 10000 25000 0 15000 10000 25000 362916 1728 1322 830 2319 7883 14082 0 1728 1322 830 2319 7883 14082 0 850 850 109970 56603 47505 80387 108383 402848 0.90090 0.93870 0.03500 0.01700 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED LORI CONWAY CURRENT DIRECTOR 6850 FEES PAID false Schedule L, Part V Supplemental Information INTERESTED PERSON: LORI CONWAY - CURRENT DIRECTOR - PAID $6,850 TO CONWAY GARDENS OWNED BY LORI Form 990, Part VI, Section B, Line 11b DRAFT PROVIDED FOR REVIEW BY TREASURER Form 990, Part VI, Section C, Line 19 No documents available to the public.
