About me
Lance Irving took the helm of Sand County Foundation’s Leopold Conservation Award Program in 2016 after more than 15 years of experience in the outdoor sporting goods industry, and prior to that as a professional wilderness hunting and fishing guide. As chief sales and marketing officer at two outdoor manufacturing companies, Irving became a recognized leader in the outdoor industry. Since joining Sand County Foundation, Irving has helped grow the Leopold Conservation Award program from 8 participating states to 28. The expansion of the program both geographically and in prominence has helped to promote a land ethic to both the agricultural community and general public.
Lance Irving will be giving a keynote address during the Conservation Forum.
