As part of its efforts to restore the parklands of the Charles River Basin, the Conservancy will hold meetings to discuss Basin projects and increase public awareness of Conservancy activities, conduct legislative briefings, and sponsor workshops and symposiums. Those events will be posted here. For details, see below or contact us.

Volunteer events: May proved to be productive and exciting time of renewal - and a very busy time of spring cleaning. Thanks to the enthusiastic help of our volunteers, we now have freshly planted garden beds, benches and picnic tables with new coats of paint, and shorelines trimmed of brush and invasive species. The parkland is looking great and is ready for what is sure to be another beautiful summer season, but there's still lots of good work to be done! We're looking forward to enjoying a busy June here at The Conservancy, with many groups scheduled to join us on the river, the celebration of our 10th Anniversary, and an open volunteer event on June 19th - we're hoping many of you will join in the fun!

For more information about volunteer events, please contact Logan Walsh.
