This lecture is in honor of Bobbie Dolp Because of their mother’s long-term leadership and commitment to the Lord & Schryver Conservancy, Bobbie Dolp’s children sponsor an annual lecture in her honor. Each year a dynamic speaker is selected to enlighten attendees about someone or something paramount to landscape architecture.
