Welcome to Chattooga River TU!
John Garton, Sept. 8, 1943 - April 10, 2024
John always worked behind the scene, and avoided any praise for his dedicated efforts for conservation. However, without John, we wouldn't have the Whitewater river plan, nor the Jocassee Gorges State Park. John was also responsible for our restoration work on Corbin creek and was a strong partner in our successful efforts to restore the southern Appalachian strain of brook trout to headwater streams in SC.
He was a super nice guy and a close friend to our chapter. He will be sorely missed.
