Celebrating Bob Van Oosten’s more than 50 years of service to Stillwater Conservation District, with his wife by his side! Her support over the years—and the delicious homemade cookies she’s shares—deserve special recognition, too. Thank you both for the time, care, and kindness you’ve given to our district and community!
