We are grateful to all our friends and supporters who joined us for this year’s Spring Fundraising Breakfast at Lake Sammamish State Park.

If you were unable to be there, we hope to see you next year! We invite you to view the event recording and photos using the buttons below.

- Advocate for the public acquisition and protection of lands and waters that provide maximum benefits for people and wildlife

Waste Diversion
The Mountains to Sound Greenway Trust is committed to reducing our environmental impact and promoting sustainable practices. As part of this commitment, we’ve partnered with Perennial Zero Waste to divert and eliminate waste at our annual Spring Breakfast events over the past four years.
Last year, we were able to prevent 631 single-use cups, 321 single-use plates, and 641 utensils from being wasted by using reusable glasses and dishes during this event. For more information, you can view the full summary here.
