Whereas, this dedicated conservationist's thirty-nine-year mission of seeking ways to improve natural resources at both the county and state levels has brought him this honor; and
Whereas, from January 23 to 25, 2023, Mr. Jurs was in Greenville to accept his award formally before fellow conservation district commissioners representing each of the state's forty-six counties; and
Whereas, he was chosen from a field of two hundred thirty unpaid commissioners statewide, who pull together toward the common goal of promoting the wise and responsible use of natural resources; and
Whereas, in addition to his contributions as a conservation district executive officer, Barry Jurs also presently serves as senior project manager of economic development for Santee Cooper, which focuses on providing economic development while concurrently enhancing and/or addressing quality-of-life matters impacting citizens statewide; and
