The Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy


This year, The Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy will be providing us with two different programs.  They will be taking kids on nature hikes to explore Dillon's Woods (at Fireman's Field across the street from the Town Hall) and making a presentation about their Monarch Butterfly Campaign.

Lightyears ahead? We think so!


Why Clean Green?

For those of us at Lightyear, cleaning green isn’t simply an idea−it’s a lifestyle. We believe in the principles of stewardship, hard work, and integrity for the goal of creating a healthy, safe, and natural living and work environment. As stewards of the world we’ve been given, it’s important to us not only to care for the natural environment, but also for yours. Please join us in choosing to live clean by living green.
