A Message From the Arboretum Director... What a remarkable year! Thanks to generous supporters, donors, public and private partners, the Arboretum is making a difference in the community. The Arboretum demonstrated growth across the spectrum with a double digit spike in visitorship; a record year for giving and philanthropy to support gardens and collections, new visitor venues and horticultural research; boosts in membership; and improvements to inspire learning and enhance the visitor experience (see Of Note on page 3). Visitorship to the Arboretum increased by 12.13%, to 325,239 visitors...despite “blowback” from the polar vortex and the 3rd coldest Minnesota winter on record. Overall, FY 2014 brought record new visitors of 54,835 paying full or discounted admission – more families, young adults and people from throughout the metro to enjoy the gardens and outdoors, and take in a double-header of exhibits: “Butterflies: Beauty in Flight” and “Nature in Glass” featuring sculptures of Craig Mitchell Smith. Dedicated financial support and

endowments helped the Arboretum grow its capability in plant conservation to preserve rare and endangered native plant species, and in cold-hardy woody plants research. Over the past fiscal year, 5,722 donors collectively contributed $19.4 million, including a $6 million future bequest. Rounding out the year was the Fall launch of the public phase of the Arboretum Campaign, an initiative of the Minnesota Landscape Arboretum Foundation to raise $60 million by 2016 (as of this date, $45 million has been raised). The campaign promise is to preserve an environment of discovery and renewal, and ensure enriching, inspiring and life-changing moments in nature and the outdoors. We are grateful for your generous support. Best wishes for a happy new year!

Funded by Leonard and Mary Lou Hoeft. • Sculpture Garden and installation of final three sculptures this fall—a gift of Alfred and Ingrid Lenz Harrison. • Grand Entry Plaza and Gatehouse—generously funded by K.A.H.R.

LEON SNYDER HERITAGE SOCIETY Individuals who have made commitments of future support to the Arboretum are honored as members of the Leon Snyder Heritage Society. Gifts from Heritage Society members include bequests in their wills and living trusts, beneficiary designations in life insurance and retirement plans, and life-income and other splitinterest arrangements such as charitable gift annuities, charitable remainder trusts and lead trusts. In many cases, these gifts afford substantial tax advantages for donors. Friends of the Arboretum who have made or are considering such gifts are encouraged to share their plans with us (in confidence, of course) so that we may recognize and thank them during their lifetimes and, if they wish, discuss with them what they would like their gifts to accomplish.
