The Piatt County Soil and Water Conservation District would like to thank John for donating his time to the PCSWCD Board of Directors for 19 years, from 2000 to 2019. He was a highly committed board member who rarely missed a meeting. Throughout his time serving on the Board, John has played many roles and was instrumental in developing programs and financial security for the District. The Board and staff are deeply grateful for his dedication to our mission for nearly two decades. In honor of his passing, the District is memorializing the annual fall tree sale as the John Beckhart Memorial Tree Sale.
