The Friends of Scarborough Marsh help complete the closing for the Blue Point Preserve

Betsy Barrett, Board Treasurer and Stephanie Smith, Board President
attended the closing for the Whitten Property, which was the marsh
frontage in the new Blue Point Preserve. The Friends and the
Scarborough Land Trust shared equally in purchasing this portion of the
reserve from the Town of Scarborough.

The preserve is now owned by the Scarborough Land Trust, and they
will be creating trails and improving the access to the property.
By spring we should all be able to enjoy walking, bird watching,
picnicking or just enjoying the marsh from the preserve.
This is a beautiful piece of land abutting the marsh which is now
preserved for posterity.
