trail walks
Date: February 7, 2010 - 2pm
Walk Leader: Jonathan White
Phone: 781-893-9918
Walk Location: College Pond Area

The Weston Forest & Trail monthly walk will take place at the College Pond Conservation Area on Sunday, February 7, 2010 at 2:00 p.m. Meet at the Burchard Park/College Pond Parking Area (off Concord Road and adjacent to College Pond).

Tracker/Wildlife Specialist Lydia Rogers will accompany the trip. Ms. Rogers will help search for and identify animal tracks and other signs of wildlife. Dress in accordance with the weather. Some of the trip will be off-trail so waterproof boots are a must. Dogs should not be brought on this trip, since the participants will be looking for wildlife and wildlife signs.

Following the walk, refreshments will be served at the Warming Shack beside College Pond. The monthly trail walks are organized by the Weston Forest and Trail Association, but you do not need to be a member to join us. We look forward to seeing you there. Bring your friends.

weston forest and trail association
The Weston Forest and Trail Association is a volunteer organization responsible for working with land owners to encourage land conservation or land development consistent with Weston's rural character, and for stewardship of existing conservation land. WFT has helped to build and supports the maintenance of approximately one hundred miles of trails. The Association also sponsors trail walks and activities to encourage Weston residents to use and become more familiar with the more than 2000 acres of conservation land in town.

 
 

 

support land conservation
Weston Forest and Trail is supported by membership dues and by gifts to our operating and our endowment fund. Many land owners have also supported our cause by giving land or conservation restrictions to the association.

We encourage all residents who appreciate the rural character of Weston to become members and to consider gifts to our operating and endowment funds.

We also encourage landowners who would like to lean more about the benefits of land conservation to contact us.
