Lone Star Land Steward: Winston 8 Ranch The Leopold Conservation Award winner for the Texas Parks and Wildlife 2014 Lone Star Land Steward awards is the Winston 8 Ranch in Nacogdoches County, Texas, managed by Simon Winston.

But thanks to a group of volunteers, the work gets done and park visitors are the ones who benefit. You’ll meet some of these “park helpers”, and find out why they are so incredibly enthusiastic about doing work that can at times be a little mundane.
