The Beaver Creek Wetlands Association honored founding member Dane Mutter with a ceremony dedicating the Dane Mutter Prairie. Dane helped acquire this piece of land in the wetland corridor that has been converted from a soybean field to a prairie full of wildflowers. Dane has been a major player in the region’s conservation and land stewardship progress. His charm and warmth combined with his knowledge of the natural world is a combination that gets others to see his perspective and support conservation efforts. Thank you, Dane Mutter, you are a friend, a mentor, and an inspiration to all of us.

The Dane Mutter Prairie is located between the Hunter’s Pointe and Hunter’s Ridge neighborhoods on Beaver Valley Road and Beaver Creek.
