Bison Paddles to Support the Utah Conservation Corps With Pickleball Paddle Set
LOGAN, Utah —The Utah Conservation Corps has launched a collaboration with Bison Paddles to support the UCC’s mission of developing the conservation leaders of tomorrow.
Bison Paddles, a custom pickleball paddle company based in Utah and co-founded by USU alumni Collin Peterson and Daniel Warren, is rolling out production of the Arches paddle set as part of their Park Series that features artwork inspired by America’s National Parks.
Bison Paddles has committed to donate to the UCC 10% of the sale price of every Arches paddle set sold. Bison Paddles has already supported conservation organizations like the National Buffalo Foundation and the National Park Foundation with proceeds from similar-themed pickleball paddle sets.
“As fellow Aggies, we are excited to be collaborating with the UCC,” Peterson said. “We wholeheartedly support their mission in protecting public lands and developing conservation leaders. Our goal is to help raise awareness of the UCC all while spreading the joy of pickleball in our great state.”
Center for Community Engagement Executive Director Sean Damitz said: “We’re grateful to Bison Paddles for this generous support of the UCC and the conservation of the shared spaces that we all value.”
UCC is an AmeriCorps program based out of Utah State University’s Center for Community Engagement. Since 2001, more than 2,700 UCC AmeriCorps members have served over 1.9 million hours creating or maintaining 4,660 miles of trail and 505 miles of fence, restoring 67,118 acres of public land and reaching 477,980 students individuals with environmental education.
