Inland Northwest Land Conservancy is delighted to welcome, Capital Campaign Coordinator, Ben Sprague to the team!

Having grown up in both Mt. Vernon and Seattle, Ben was introduced to outdoors while camping and hiking with his family along the coast and mountain ranges of the Pacific Northwest. Ben’s favorite way to spend time outside is under the stars uncompromised by unnatural lighting and sounds. He loves being high up in the mountains or listening to the sounds of ocean waves slapping at the shore.

Having recently moved from Eugene, Oregon, Ben is happy to be back in Washington, closer family and memories from his childhood. Starting work at the Conservancy in February 2024, Ben hopes to make a lasting difference in the community and contribute to leaving behind natural spaces for others to enjoy.

Ben’s favorite season is fall for the amazing color palate of the leaves, the smells, rainy/windy weather and the cycle of sports being played. When he’s not outside, you can find Ben shooting hoops or baking up a tasty treat.
