September 2010 ~ Announcing the Bill Levitt Fellowship
This fellowship program is both a tribute to Bill's public service record and an effort to train young people in the tradition of intelligence and integrity which Bill personified. Click here for details.

As many of you may know, Bill was an integral part of Friends of Alta helping found this non-profit back in 1981.  Over the last 30 years with Bill's Advisory role Friends of Alta has matured into a viable organization with a key niche in Alta's community.  FOA will continue to carrying on Bill's passion for, and protection of, Alta's environment and community for future generations. 

A memorial tree was planted for Bill Levitt on August 26, 2010 at memorial grove in Albion Basin.  Click here for the photos.  Thanks to all the hard working volunteers for their help with the planting.

Some words from Bill....2005

After living 50 years in Alta (34 of them as Mayor) I still remember with a sense of awe my early impression of Alta and the Albion Basin. This incredible area, often called "The Gem of the Wasatch Mountain Range", has changed very little during these many years. Its pristine beauty, myriad of wildflowers, lush wetlands, crystal streams, variety of mountain wildlife, and awesome mountain peaks remain familiar to the thousands of people who have visited this uniquely beautiful place. It is no accident that when people refer to Alta as their "spiritual home", it is Albion Basin that is foremost in their minds.

Albion Basin is not only beautiful but is also a recharge area of a critical watershed for the Salt Lake Valley. It has always been the mission of the Town of Alta - the Mayor and the Town Council, to be the guardians of this most precious watershed. Each year, young people from all over our country come to study this incredible environment. Alta's magic has reached the minds of many generations. The care, concern and active assistance of the Friends of Alta (and many others) are the true assurance that Alta and its Albion Basin will remain an inspiration for all fortunate enough to visit it and enjoy its great beauty.
