Keystone Resources - "The Canvas Bag"
The Keystone Project makes a significant investment in community leaders. One of those investments is in the form of take home resources, given out at the annual Keystone training. The resources are meant to be used by the Cooperator as well as shared with friends, local conservation organizations, and municipal boards. The exact resources change from year to year. Below is a list of materials commonly given to each Keystone Cooperator:
