Volunteer Recognition

2025 Burritt Volunteer of the Year Award:  B. Nonymous

Congratulations to 2025 Burritt Volunteer of the Year—someone who would much rather stay behind the scenes, so we’ll respect that and call him B. Nonymous.

For over 20 years, B. has quietly shaped Burritt in ways that many people will never fully see—but they experience it every time they step onto a trail, attend an event, or enjoy this mountain. With more than 8,000 volunteer hours at Burritt, he has built and maintained trails, supported special events, served as a trusty sherpa, and contributed to countless construction projects. If something needed doing, chances are B. was already working on it.

B. Anonymous’ passion, humility, and dedication make a lasting impact on this place we all care about. He often says that working in the woods is his therapy—that it’s good for his soul. And if you’ve ever had the chance to talk with him about the forest, you know just how true that is. His love for the natural world is contagious.

While we know you don’t seek recognition, we hope this small tribute—and a caricature in your honor—celebrates you in a way that feels right. Thank you, B. Nonymous, for the time, heart, and hard work you share with Burritt. You truly make our natural world shine.
