Wow. Long-time dear friend of Restoration Systems, Mr. Eddie Bridges, has been honored with a huge award: Field and Stream’s Conservation Hero of the Year.

John Preyer and George Howard have known and respected Eddie Bridges since they were kids growing up in Greensboro. Eddie’s organization, the NC Wildlife Habitat Foundation, holds the protective easements on more than 1000 acres of RS mitigation at multiple locations which we have permanently endowed with over $300,000.

John Preyer was honored to join Eddie at RS’ Haw River mitigation site to shoot the Field and Stream video below (cue the tall guy in dark blue shirt!).
