David Krosting Sustainability Award
Each year, SVS presents the David Krosting Sustainability Award at our annual Harvest Celebration to a recipient who displays a strong commitment to Lemhi County’s economy, community, or the environment.
​
Sustainability is defined as "meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." Award recipients display a strong commitment to at least one of the components of the sustainability triple bottom line: economy, community, and the environment. The David Krosting Sustainability Award is presented to recipients creating a lifelong legacy in Lemhi County.
​
The award is named in honor of the Bureau of Land Management Salmon Field Office manager, David Krosting, who lost his battle with cancer in 2005. Dave challenged his employees and himself to consider not just how a project affected the environment, but also to look at community and economic benefits.
The 2024 Krosting Award Winner is the Salmon Whitewater Park Association!
