VISION STATEMENT The Converse County Conservation District will strive to achieve a better understanding of the conservation ethic. To the best of our ability, we will try to recognize our community’s natural resource needs.

HISTORY There were three conservation districts originally formed in Converse County. In 1947, both the LaPrele District and the Glenrock District were formed.
