History

PSABC is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2026! As part of the celebration, we have revisited the organization’s history, and created a new webpage with a story map to tell our story. You can find the story map below.

Click the PSABC logo at the top right to visit the full story map webpage. Scroll through the story map to begin exploring. As you scroll through, you can click images to make them larger. Click “play” to listen to audio clips from oral histories (you can find the transcriptions of these clips on the right side of the audio player, as well as the volume control). There are links throughout the text that will lead you to outside webpages to learn even more information. There is an interactive map showing locations of our easement properties, as well as an interactive timeline featuring key dates and events from our history.

This story map is a living document, so we will continue to add information, images, and new stories as we discover them. If there is a story that you would like to share, please reach out to Catherine at catherine@psabc.org so that we may include it.

We hope you enjoy learning about PSABC’s incredible 50 year legacy!
