Alert! PUBLIC HEARING TO STOP SC LEGISLATORS FROM RAIDING THE PUBLIC’s LAND PRESERVATION FUND!! Tuesday, June 9th, 2:30PM
Rose Y. Caracappa Auditorium, 725 Vets Memorial Hwy, Smithtown
Let SC Legislators Cameron Alden and DuWayne Gregory know that their bill (Resolution #1458-2009 is not what the public voted for!!!!! Make sure YOUR legislator VOTES NO on this shameful legislation!
Contact YOUR SC legislator and let him or her know that they MUST VOTE NO! Money that the voters said should be used for the Drinking Water Protection Program — SC’s most successful land preservation program should not now be re-allocated as a slush fund.

Update! PLANTING DAY AT EDGEWOOD!! Saturday, June 27th, 9AM to 1PM
As some of you know, we had to postpone our planting day from this weekend (Saturday, June 6) to SATURDAY, June 27th, from 9AM to 1PM, due to problems with topsoil delivery and plant availability.
Please consider helping us out on June 27th — we will be planting dozens of black-eyed susans in the fenced areas in the parking lot. Come for an hour or more. Bring a friend. Tools, gloves and water provided, however, if you wish to bring your own gloves and tools — great! Thanks and hope to see you then!
(raindate: Sunday, June 28th, 9AM to 1PM).
