About the Upstate Chapter

The Upstate Chapter was formed in 2003 and geographically it is loosely formed around the following counties (although anyone can join or participate):

Abbeville, Anderson, Cherokee, Greenville, Laurens, Oconee, Pickens, Spartanburg

This area of the state encompass portions of both the Blue Ridge and Piedmont ecoregions, creating the most biologically diverse areas in the State.

The Upstate Chapter has a dynamic leadership team consisting of a Board of Directors as well and a variety of standing committees with important missions.  Below is a snap-shot of our key leadership and their contact information, and click on any one of them to get to know more about our dynamic team of contributors.
