Annual Meeting - May 1, 2008

7pm in the Cary Hall main auditorium (Cary Hall is located between the police station and Town Hall on Massachusetts Avenue)

An excellent opportunity to learn of the many exciting things going on in town, talk about your own experiences, and connect with other Stewards to work together on planning and improving your favorite land.

Get the latest on:

•        The West Lexington Greenway master plan

•        The Open Space and Recreation Plan update

•        Recent and future projects in the Town's Conservation Lands

We also want to hold a brainstorming session to get your input for the Open Space and Recreation Plan. As folks who enjoy the conservation lands, you've seen the problems and opportunities and envisioned improvements, so you are the best resource of ideas. There will be plenty of time to meet the fellow stewards of your favorite conservation area, discuss site-specific goals, and plan together how to achieve them.
