A couple in an approximately 1930 photograph with the Cedarburg Covered Bridge. You can see a couple of children catching minnows or tadpoles or something underneath the bridge. Originally, it spanned Cedar Creek without the middle support underneath it. After decades, the 100 foot long wooden bridge had begun to sag. This year, we celebrate the 150th birthday of Wisconsin's last remaining historic covered bridge.

On Friday, July 17, Gathering Waters presented Andrew Struck with the 2026 Harold "Bud" Jordahl Lifetime Achievement Award!

Andrew Struck has dedicated more than 25 years of his career to preserving the natural landscapes and waterways of Ozaukee County, serving as its Director of Planning and Parks for over 20 of his 25 years on staff.

His visionary leadership has secured over $35 million in external funding for natural resource projects and helped protect, restore, and provide public access for a remarkable string of Lake Michigan coastal properties, including Lion’s Den Gorge Nature Preserve, Forest Beach Migratory Preserve, Virmond County Park, and Clay Bluffs Cedar Gorge Nature Preserve.

Beyond land acquisition, Andrew spearheaded the Ozaukee County Fish Passage Program and oversaw the development of two iterations of the Ozaukee County Farmland Preservation Plan.

Congratulations, Andrew! Thank you for your leadership and your tireless efforts to support land conservation in Wisconsin.
