Fall 2012 Newsletter

Fall 2012 Newsletter

Check out our online-version of the Fall 2012 BCT Newsletter.  In it you will find the latest details of BCT boldest move yet: the purchase, at auction, of a 6.5-acre beech forest fronting Greenland Pond.  BCT had never participated at an auction for land before, but before we knew it, we were submitting the winning bid!  The land had previously been offered to BCT for an asking price twice as high as we ended up paying for it.

You will also learn about the critical habitats that BCT considers our Most Wanted types of natural resource parcels and recap Brewster Conservation Day.  President Peter Johnson reflects on the late Frances Nickerson and the many ways she gave of herself to BCT.  And we look at other BCT “significant others”, including John and Carol Ericsson, the late Steve Erickson and conservation leaders at the Town of Brewster.

It’s all in your year-end Newsletter.  Along with the high, good hope that you will rally around us and make a year-end contribution to our cause.

IMAGINE. A deck overlooking a wooded valley. Filtered sunlight sparkling on a small pond. In summer, a soft breeze over the water rustling the leaves. In winter, a frosty stillness quieting the air. Throughout the year a ramp leading from the deck to a footpath approaching a small pond surrounded by shrubby greenery. All this […]

This story started three generations ago when Ralph and Blanche Doble purchased over 70 acres along Satucket Rd. in 1955. Summer after summer, the couple’s son, five daughters, and 18 grandchildren would visit. Over the years, the land was subdivided and each Doble child received a house lot of approximately ten acres. The daughters each […]
